Add option for different background color on each open tab #1669

Open ghost opened 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

If a user could right click on an open tab and change the background color of that specific terminal, It would help the user know what tab they are on when using Ctrl+PgDwn

Also having an option for hex color code for guake startup command scripts, Setting the tab background color for tabs that are set to automatically run when guake starts would be very useful.

FYI: you can change the background using a shell command, e.g. from your shell startup file, like:

printf '\e]11;#abcdef\e\\'

Hi. I like the idea of a right click command with a set of predefined color. Would help a lot for some case (radish bg for ssh on prod server for instance)

@egmontkob thankyou very much, I will give this a shot

I love this idea. Maybe a different theme per tab would be optimal (so that the font colors match the background)
