Re: YAIQ - Yet another ignorant question: multiple LPARs.

I use session Name in the Title bar also.

The color is simply a way obvious clue to the environment the session is to.

If all 9 of your sessions are to production machines, then I could see that
color wouldn't help.  On the other hand, if 3 are to development, 3 are to
various QA boxes, and 3 are to various production boxes , a Green/Yellow/Red
color scheme like I use may offer a nice flag.
