I’m old school and still do much work in a terminal. My preferred terminal is iTerm2. I use multiple windows and multiple tabs/window. I tend to have lots of suspended work or session, which I keep in tabs. It is convenient to use separate tabs for each task for many reasons. Unfortunately, it is often difficult to find the correct tab when there is time to return to the task.

I have started using colored tabs as a way to (more) quickly identify tabs. The problem is that tab colors are a menu item (I prefer command line) and most of the default tab colors are ugly.

My solution is Ken Snyder’s tab colors. Thanks, Ken.
