Per-task color palette #2426

Closed theodiem closed 2 years ago

theodiem commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I really appreciate the effor put into conemu. I find it really useful and I'm happy to see constants updates to it. I would like to request the feature to be able to select a different color Palette per task. The use case is that I enconter myself using different type of tasks (powershell, WSL, MSYS2) and often get myself typing wrong syntax or "forgetting" which was which. It would be nice, for example to use Solorized palette when starting a MSYS2 and a Monokai when starting WSL/Ubuntu.

It would be nice to have it as "Task parameters" as there are already a few conemu behaviour options there already.

Many thanks.

This is already possible - read the documentation for -new_console:

Within ConEmu Tasks you may explicitly set color palette for creating tab: sh.exe --login -i -new_console:P:"Palette"

Many thanks. Sorry, I did not find so obviously the -new_console/-cur_console reference as I don't know much about how the tasks works. I've looked at the obvious field "task parameter" but failed to follow the -new_console reference.

For anyone stumbling into this ticket, I've managed to work by setting, for example, the following as the command for the WSL:

%windir%\system32\wsl.exe -cur_console:pm:/mnt -cur_console:P:"<Monokai>" --distribution Ubuntu-20.04
