Here is an interesting idea for on-the-fly changes to your filemanager. The colors are defined by your desktop theme. If you are using MATE then there is a settings module that defines this.
However it can be changed on a per-application basis, by running from the commandline. Like this for GNOME3: GTK_THEME=theme:variant nautilus The GTK_THEME variable should override the desktop default when you run the filemanager. Other Desktop environments will have other variables for this. Themes set the background and foreground colors, so all you need to do is install additional themes, and override them when you launch your second and third file manager windows. I hope. Haven't actually tried this yet. On Wed, Sep 26, 2018 at 11:19 AM Rich Shepard <[email protected]> wrote: > On Wed, 26 Sep 2018, Richard Owlett wrote: > > > xterm was relevant.
