Here's a patch against aterm-1.0.0 obtainable from ftp://ftp.afterstep.org/apps/aterm/ (looks like 1.0.1 got released after I did the patch but I never noticed). I'd also forgotten how it works: it sets the colour based on the window title of the aterm, and I have shell codes in my PS1 prompt that set the window title to the current directory (I have PS1=\[\e]2;\W\007\]$ FWIW). Also note this is a real hack that I've never bothered to clean up properly. diff -r -u aterm-1.0.0/src/main.c aterm-1.0.0.mod/src/main.c --- aterm-1.0.0/src/main.c 2005-06-20 17:10:19.000000000 +0100 +++ aterm-1.0.0.mod/src/main.c 2002-01-01 00:05:03.000000000 +0000 @@ -1265,6 +1265,45 @@ # define set_window_color(idx,color) ((void)0) #endif /* XTERM_COLOR_CHANGE */ +/*DST*/ +#define NO_VARS 16 +char* col[NO_VARS][2] + ={{"#000000","#ffffff"}, + {"#202020","#ffffff"}, + {"#404040","#ffffff"}, + {"#300030","#ffffff"}, + {"#303000","#ffffff"}, + {"#003030","#ffffff"}, + {"#300000","#ffffff"}, + {"#000030","#ffffff"}, + {"#000000","#ffffff"}, + {"#300030","#ffffff"}, + {"#004040","#ffffff"}, + {"#404000","#ffff00"}, + {"#400040","#00ff00"}, + {"#000040","#00c090"}, + {"#004000","#00c090"}, + {"#400000","#c09000"}}; + +int oldAcc=0; + +void +setRepColor(const char* const str) +{ + char *p=(char*)str; + int acc=0; + while(*p!='\0'){ + acc+=*p; + ++p; + } + acc=acc & (NO_VARS-1); + if(acc!=oldAcc){ /*prevent unnecessary blinking*/ + set_window_color(Color_bg,col[acc][0]); + set_window_color(Color_fg,col[acc][1]); + oldAcc=acc; + } +} + /* * XTerm escape sequences: ESC ] Ps;Pt BEL * 0 = change iconName/title @@ -1299,7 +1338,8 @@ set_iconName(str); break; case XTerm_title: - set_title(str); + set_title(str); /*DST*/ + setRepColor(str); break; case XTerm_Color: for (buf = (char *)str; buf && *buf;) { -- cheers, dave tweed__________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Rm 124, School of Systems Engineering, University of Reading.
