Using Grep Colour to look in a file, and output with a coloured answer in amongst the file contents
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I am currently in the process of writing a program in raspberry pi that will allow me to look inside files and have what I entered displayed in colour I think I need to do something to do with --colour but I don't know what to do 100%
Here is my current code.
#!/bin/bash
echo "Enter the name of the file to search within"
read file
echo "Enter what you would like to look for"
read search
and then I hope for the grep line.
Thanks for any input!

grep --colour=always $search $file
This should work if these are the names of your variables.
