mkdir ~/my_script_folder
cd ~/my_script_folder/
git clone [email protected]:lfender6445/iterm2_rainbow_tabs.git
cd iterm2_rainbow_tabs
chmod u+x iterm2_rainbow_tabs.sh

then add the following to your ~/.bash_profile (bash) or ~ /.zprofile (zsh)

dont forget to update the path so it points to the right file

if [ -f ~/my_script_folder/iterm2_rainbow_tabs/iterm2_rainbow_tabs.sh ];
 then . ~/my_script_folder/iterm2_rainbow_tabs/iterm2_rainbow_tabs.sh
fi

start a new terminal session or open a new tab. enjoy!

modifying the colors

you can source the file to run any of the functions defined within ~/my_script_folder/iterm2_rainbow_tabs/iterm2_rainbow_tabs.sh

eg source ./iterm2_rainbow_tabs/iterm2_rainbow_tabs.sh

then call tab_orange_red from command line to try out different colors!

if there is a color you dont like, you can remove it from the array my_favorite_colors defined at the bottom the script.
