Comment on Keeping track of different targets in terminal

I (manually) set the background color of my terminals depending on the machine I connect to. I currently have profiles for red, green, blue, and black backgrounds with black as my default. I usually use red for ones I want to be especially careful of.

That’s a great idea. Do you have it persist between sessions? Like one server #1 it’s always green?

I just right click on the terminal to change the profile to whatever I feel like it should be in the moment (usually red). I do it by reflex, basically. I never felt the need to try to set up automation for different servers, but I expect there’s probably a way to do that if you really wanted to.
