Indeed, it would be great. Unfortunately, trials do not work: Outputs from
mprintf("%s\n",ascii(27)+"[31mThis text is RED!"+ascii(27)+"[0m")
mprintf("%s\n",ascii([27 91 31])+"m This text is RED!"+ascii([27 91 0])+"m")
write(%io(2), ascii(27)+"[31m This text is RED!"+ascii(27)+"[0m")
write(%io(2), ascii([27 91 31])+"m This text is RED!"+ascii([27 91 0])+"m")

stand desperately black :(

With early 5.x Scilab releases, it was possible to print some text in 
color or even import images in the console (like Scilab's Puffin) 
through some JIMS commands (The JIMS portal on the Forge showed some 
examples). But these features were canceled since then.
