Colorize keywords feature #791

Open Swfuse opened 1 year ago

Swfuse commented 1 year ago

Hello!

I'm looking for a keywords highlighting feature. Such as INFO, ERROR, successful. And that it should work on all terminal output. That is, not through bashrc.

mobaxterm has this functionality out of the box. Iterm2 has Triggers functionality that implements something similar.

Is there such functionality in terminator?

MobaXTerm example: image

iTerm2 example: image

If somebody find this note - you can try ChromaTerm

That sounds like a good idea for a plugin.

I am engaged in computational chemistry research, and it is imperative for me to assign highlighting colors to certain keywords.

VTE has a proof of concept patch in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-terminal/-/issues/7771. The work is to be completed (which would be quite a tedious task: figuring out a decent API as well as how the rules would be represented in the emulator's settings panel).

Actually it's a dup of #396.
