pushed v0.014

Changed the way the command is called. Using commands in stead of options.

^ Irene's script stopped working for me. Dunno why.

Support for terminator is suspended until the situation clears up.

I asked for support on the terminator launchpad page.

^ Difficult to test, Irene has to speak as we do not use such bloat like Terminator. :)

[xaos52]

I was under the impression - misconception - that Irene's script did on the 'fly change of palette.
Now I am convinced that she uses the script to generate a palette representation that she then applies by editing the terminator config file.
So, no dynamic changing of color palette for terminator, at least not by using that script.

I am awaiting response from the terminator maintainers if it is possible to dynamically make changes from a script in any other way. Until then terminator support is suspended.

I don't use terminator either.

^ yep, this was exactly my point. i am uncertain either but iirc it had no way to do this dynamically... nice thing of you to go so far as to ask the devs about it. seeing how the terminator will probably not be included in a BBQ release anytime soon again, it seems quite safe to skip it if it turns out to be too much of a hassle :)

Spawn a new xterm instance with random color theme.
Built on console-colors:

Available as `xterm-launcher' in my `bash-scripts' github repo.
Can be used from CLI or from a WM menu.
Should work with urxvt too. Just s:xterm:rxvt:

[wuxmedia]

[dkeg]

haha, that is definitely a cool and unique idea.

[ivanovnegro]

How cool is that Doc.

if anyone finds a good random scheme, be sure to share it (in the right section of course)! also, be sure to give it a cool name :)
