bash script (attached) is based on code here: http://www.unix.com/shell-programming-scripting/96238-random-colour-xterm-alias.html#post302275247
script requires xterm & bash scaled video of bash script output/consequences here: http://jwm-art.net/art/out-21-scaled.avi the script generates a random colour and random dimensions (W x H) and opens a terminal with these properties and passes the name of the script to the terminal via the -e command. when the command passed to xterm via the -e option finishes then the terminal exits. the script recursively calls itself through "xterm -e $0" until (on my system) eventually the system prevents any more terminals opening which causes the last terminal to exit whih cascades down closing all of them.
