Coloring of syntax in SSH sessions

Dear,


it would be very helpfull if you could make it so that certain words in SSH session get a color.

It would also be nice if you could choose those words and colors freely or use a template such as 'Cisco network devices' or 'Linux distributions'.


Your competitors such as MobaXterm and Devolutions already have this possibility.


Thanks and keep up the good work!

I'm happy to report that Royal TS 5.0 has been released and includes this feature.

For more information about the major new features of Royal TS 5.0, please head over to our https://www.royalapplications.com/ts/win/features-upgrade

try add \b before word: \b(?i)disable(\w*)|\bfail(\w*)|\berr(\w*)

I regularly import a new site with 40+ telnet or SSH sessions via a spreadsheet, is there a simple way to apply syntax highlighting on all these new connections?  At present it looks like I have to go add the regex, then select the colours. Can be done in Bulk edit, but its still laborious. 


Hi James,


check out the bulk-edit KB here:

I hope this helps.

Hi James, try to use sikulix.com It can automate any clicking ;-) Filip

one more thing: I expect you can change the default setting for your connection so all new connections will have your requirements. hope this help

@James Julier : The best solution is to use the overrides. This will apply to all connexions. 


@Branko Zavrl : i'm looking for the same thing

What happens that text Highlighting is so slow? A few milliseconds pass before it is applied to the screen. Is there any way to improve this speed?

Hi,


the delay for the text highlighting is a known issue and there's not much we can do. I'm sorry. The issue is, that we are using a third party control (from Rebex.net) which doesn't have this feature baked into the product. So we need to "scrape" the screen once the updates are done and do the highlighting manually ourselves.


You can tweak the delay in the plugin settings but choosing a timespan too short, may result in undesirable behavior:

Implementation is already done but we still haven't released a beta version yet. Unfortunately there are still other things we have to do before we can release our first beta version for Royal TS V5.

Color schemes and highlighting of individual (custom) keywords based on regex are two separate things. Color schemes are already supported in Royal TS:

https://content.royalapplications.com/Help/RoyalTS/V4/index.html?reference_terminalrebex_colors.htm

You can even define your own color palette there.


This also applies to the PuTTY plugin.

Thanks for the clarification. As reflected on the status here, this is planned and will hopefully make it into the next major release.

Stefan

Is there any vague idea as to when I can expect this feature to become available?
