It has not been tested with more than the few defined colors but I am not aware of any limitations other than that of the X11 palette. As it is released to the public now: feel free to use it as you like. ------------------ #!/bin/bash # this script takes "user@host" or a hostname/IP as argument to # establish a ssh connection in an individually background-colored # xterm window as defined below # connection definitions: multiple connections per color separated by # colons, sequential numbering is required CONNS0=gate.lan:[email protected] [email protected]:userx@ip CONNS2=server2:sdfsdf.sdf CONNS3=dljfghldkjf:[email protected] CONNS4= # color definitions: numbering according to connection definitions COLOR0=lightcyan COLOR1=bisque COLOR2=lightgrey COLOR3=palegreen COLOR4= COLORELSE=honeydew # shuffling variables CONNALL=`set | grep CONNS` CONNEXP=`echo "$CONNALL" | \ sed -e 's/\./\\\./g' \ -e 's/CONNS[0-9]*\=//' \ -e s/\'//g \ -e 's/\:/\|/'` CONNARR=($CONNEXP) CONNLIN=`echo "${CONNARR[@]}" | \ sed -e 's/\ /\|/g'` COUNT=0 # assigning color to connection if [[ "$@" =~ ^($CONNLIN)$ ]] ; then while (( "$COUNT" < ${#CONNARR[@]} )) ; do if [[ "$@" =~ ^(${CONNARR[$COUNT]})$ ]] ; then break else COUNT=$(($COUNT+1)) fi done elif [[ "$@" =~ \@($CONNLIN)$ ]] ; then while (( "$COUNT" < ${#CONNARR[@]} )) ; do if [[ "$@" =~ ^(${CONNARR[$COUNT]})$ ]] ; then break elif [[ "$@" =~ .*(${CONNARR[$COUNT]})$ ]] ; then break else COUNT=$(($COUNT+1)) fi done else COUNT=ELSE fi # colors, not numbers COLOR=COLOR"$COUNT" COLOR="${!COLOR}" # start xterm and connect to server xterm -bg "$COLOR" -T "${@/*@/}" -e ssh "$@" & exit 0 ------------------ Now I have a bunch of one-liners like the following in $PATH. This might be less elegant but (form follows function) saves me even more typing: ------------------ #!/bin/bash xterm -bg bisque -T hostname -e ssh user@host & exit 0 ------------------ And of course some defaults in Xresources: ------------------ xterm*Background: beige xterm*Foreground: black xterm*faceName: Inconsolata:size=11 ------------------ _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
