Script for opening tabs in Guake terminal

Did you read guake --help?

Usage: guake.py [options]

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -t, --toggle-visibility
                        ?ndert die Sichtbarkeit des Terminal-Fensters.
  -p, --preferences     Zeigt die Einstellungen von Guake
  -a, --about           Zeigt Guake's Programminformationen
  -n NEW_TAB, --new-tab=NEW_TAB
                        Tab hinzuf?gen
  -s SELECT_TAB, --select-tab=SELECT_TAB
                        Tab ausw?hlen
  -g, --selected-tab    Return the selectd tab index.
  -e COMMAND, --execute-command=COMMAND
                        Eigenen Befehl im ausgew?hlten Tab ausf?hren
  -r RENAME_TAB, --rename-tab=RENAME_TAB
                        Gew?hlten Tab umbenennen
  -q, --quit            Sagt Guake das es verschwinden soll :o(

Try this:

#!/bin/sh
guake -n "whatever" -r "1" -e "ssh 1"
guake -n "whatever" -r "2" -e "ssh 2"
guake -n "whatever" -r "3" -e "ssh 3"
guake -n "whatever" -r "4" -e "ssh 4"
exit 0

(It turns out that neither guake -n "1" -e "ssh" nor guake -n "1" -s "1" -e "ssh 1" works, only renaming the tabs does the job)


It works like this: guake -n guake -e 'ssh 1' guake -r 'name_of_tab'

This will open a new tab, execute the command (ssh 1, in this case) and rename the newly created tab to "name_of_tab".
