There used to be utilities that would reach out and stuff the proper
attribute bytes into the start of the lines in question in source members.

If you know what the attributes are for Red/White/Blink, etc., just write
them to the first byte of a line of source code.

I'm not sure if you can use a terminal and the HEX key (Do they still
exist?) to input the attributes.

Beware:  Attributes do different things on green screens compared to color
terminals compared to PCs.
