for future reader
as stated, it's possible with cprintf
but it's painfully slow ... (vs fprintf)
the cprintf takes a lot of time , for example :
>>tic ; for k = 1:1e2, cprintf('_blue', '.') ; end ; fprintf('\n') ; toc
....................................................................................................
Elapsed time is 1.819822 seconds.
>> tic ; for k = 1:1e2, fprintf(2,'.') ; end ; fprintf('\n') ; toc
....................................................................................................
Elapsed time is 0.001130 seconds.
