Comment 3 for bug 1384381

It would be nice to have a means of changing the colours using the command-line (either explicitly specifying the colours, as with xterm, or specifying a profile, as with roxterm or gnome-terminal).

I use a script to open different terminals in different colours, based on how many existing terminal windows are open on the desktop. I've gotten this idea from colleagues who do something similar. For some of us who work with multiple terminals on a desktop, this is a helpful way of quickly identifying which terminal is connected to which server.
