Setting default syntax highlight for new terminals

Is it possible to configure a default settings for syntax highlighting in Terminals in Royal TS 6? I've been fiddeling with settings but I cant get it to work. I thought this was configured in Plugins -> Terminal -> Override -> Colors -> Text Highlighting -> Override, but when I add a bunch of regex and colors there, new terminals I create does not inherit those settings.


I would like to avoid creating terminal connections and later bulk edit them if possible.

Hi Erik,


this is possible via The Application Document > Default Settings:


Make sure to set the Active Plugin to "Rebex" and afterwards you should be able to change the Text Highlighting default settings:



I hope this helps!


Best regards,

Christoph

Since you were using overrides, please check the help chapter which explains the use cases for those:

Is there support for this in the mac version? 

Hi C,


yes, this is also possible in Royal TSX (macOS).


Here is an example of Highlighting the Username using triggers:


The username for the connection is "radmin", so it is highlighted in this case:


As our Terminal connection object is based on iTerm2, you can find the documentation regarding Triggers including "Send Text" and "Run Command" here:

https://iterm2.com/documentation-triggers.html


I hope this helps!


Best regards,

Christoph
