Name

       kitten-@-set-tab-color - Change the color of the specified tabs in the tab bar

Usage

       kitten @ set-tab-color  COLORS

Description

       Change the color of the specified tabs in the tab bar

       The foreground and background colors when active and inactive can be overridden using this
       command.  The  syntax  for   specifying   colors   is:   active_fg=color   active_bg=color
       inactive_fg=color  inactive_bg=color. Where color can be either a color name or a value of
       the form #rrggbb or the keyword NONE to revert to using the default colors.

Options

       --match, -m
              The tab to match. Match specifications are of the form:  field:query.  Where  field
              can  be  one  of: id, index, title, window_id, window_title, pid, cwd, cmdline env,
              var, state and recent. query is the expression to match. Expressions can be  either
              a number or a regular expression, and can be combined using Boolean operators.

              The special value all matches all tabs.

              For  numeric  fields:  id,  index,  window_id,  pid  and  recent, the expression is
              interpreted as a number, not a regular expression. Negative values for id/window_id
              match  from  the  highest  id  number  down, in particular, -1 is the most recently
              created tab/window.

              When using title or id, first a matching tab is looked for,  and  if  not  found  a
              matching window is looked for, and the tab for that window is used.

              You  can  also  use  window_id  and window_title to match the tab that contains the
              window with the specified id or title.

              The index number is used to match the nth tab in the currently  active  OS  window.
              The  recent  number matches recently active tabs in the currently active OS window,
              with zero being the currently active tab, one the previously active tab and so on.

              When using the env field to match on environment variables, you  can  specify  only
              the  environment  variable name or a name and value, for example, env:MY_ENV_VAR=2.
              Tabs containing any window with the specified environment  variables  are  matched.
              Similarly, var matches tabs containing any window with the specified user variable.

              The  field  state  matches  on  the state of the tab. Supported states are: active,
              focused, needs_attention, parent_active and parent_focused.  Active  tabs  are  the
              tabs  that  are active in their parent OS window. There is only one focused tab and
              it is the tab to which keyboard events are delivered. If no  tab  is  focused,  the
              last focused tab is matched.

              Note that you can use the kitten @ ls command to get a list of tabs.

       --self Close the tab this command is run in, rather than the active tab.

       --help, -h
              Show help for this command

Global options

       --to   An  address  for the kitty instance to control. Corresponds to the address given to
              the kitty  instance  via  the  --listen-on  option  or  the  listen_on  setting  in
              kitty.conf.  If not specified, the environment variable KITTY_LISTEN_ON is checked.
              If that is also not found, messages are sent to the controlling terminal  for  this
              process, i.e. they will only work if this process is run within a kitty window.

       --password
              A  password to use when contacting kitty. This will cause kitty to ask the user for
              permission to perform the specified action, unless the password has  been  accepted
              before  or  is  pre-configured  in  kitty.conf.  To  use  a  blank password specify
              --use-password as always.

       --password-file [=rc-pass]
              A file from which to read the password. Trailing whitespace  is  ignored.  Relative
              paths  are  resolved  from  the  kitty  configuration directory. Use - to read from
              STDIN. Use fd:num to read from the file descriptor num. Used if  no  --password  is
              supplied.  Defaults  to  checking  for  the rc-pass file in the kitty configuration
              directory.

       --password-env [=KITTY_RC_PASSWORD]
              The name of an  environment  variable  to  read  the  password  from.  Used  if  no
              --password-file   is  supplied.  Defaults  to  checking  the  environment  variable
              KITTY_RC_PASSWORD.

       --use-password [=if-available]
              If no password is available, kitty  will  usually  just  send  the  remote  control
              command  without a password. This option can be used to force it to always or never
              use the supplied password. If set to always and no password is provided, the  blank
              password is used.

              Choices: if-available, always, never
