Well, I read "[MAIN] OPTIONS - COLORS" there (which I assume you
mean); but I don't see how to get back to what I use, which is admittedly
a little complicated. Please bear with me.
I normally keep eight tabs open on each machine. (I have four
behind an HDMI KVM machine, plus one in another room, all with the same
color scheme; my wife has one of her own, still with the color scheme.)
This is all F 31 Mate; it has evolved over twenty years.
Three tabs have soft pale green background for my normal user,
with deep purple text (maximal contrast with green, but a little softer
on ancient eyeballs than black); Alpine on my remote domain turns that
yellow at top and bottom, soft gray in the middle, with dark blue text.
Two tabs are soft pale blue, available for root, with deep blood
red text. One tab is a brighter blue with the same red, for root on the
remote domain.
One tab is a dull soft tan, with maroon text, in case my wife
wants to use one of my machines.
If I've counted right, that's ten colors.
This arrangement has two uses, major and minor. Major use is that
I need not waste any of my often absent mind keeping track of who and
where I am -- a distracting detail that usually matters. (Fwiw, I also
use distinctive wallpapers and xscreensaver settings on each machine.)
Minor use is that I also know without distraction which machine I'm on at
the moment. (I allow NO window to obscure the background on any side.)
Setting all this up on each new release is a bore, and I wish I
need not do it over and over; but it's worth it in use.
