Hi, a Debian user asked if it was possible to change the tab color when there is background activity (a bit like irssi, or as the initial bug reported said, multi-gnome-terminal). It would be a nice feature to have. Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis
Created attachment 1598 Patch -p0 Here is a patch to do that. it doesn't allow for configuration (color, timeout) yet, and sets the background tabs that have activity to red for two seconds.
Created attachment 1601 Patch -p0 This second patch adds preferences (timeout and color).
Created attachment 1602 Patch -p0 Third revision: avoid setting the activity flag on the active tab (so that it doesn't get highlighted when switching away from it), and reset it to FALSE when activating a tab.
Applied patch in revision 27027
Created attachment 1698 fix_activity_on_size_change.patch I've noticed that all background tabs get activity when resizing the terminal. The attached patch fixes that.
