My daily workflow includes me
- Launching iTerm2
- Creating 3 tabs
- Setting one tab each to red, orange and yellow
- Changing to a specific path in each tab
I would like to script this process; shell, applescript, etc. However, I cannot seem to find a hook that allows me to change the tab color. Is this possible? Here is a screen shot with an example of what I am trying to achieve.

That's possible and you should read iterm escape codes for details.
^[]6;1;bg;red;brightness;N^G
I tried to setup the color of the terminal when I do
ssh
(.ssh/config) and it worked but surprise, when I close the ssh session, it will not call the script again, in order to restore the title/color.Added a feature request to auto-colored tabs - do not forget to star it, or add your comments (patches are also welcome!)
