However, can the VTE be flexible enough to allow certain lines to have a different formatting? I am interested in selections 'sent to terminal': would it be feasible to have an option that would ensure, for example, that any 'selection sent to terminal' would be formatted in red colour in the VTE?
One way that might work would be to "encode" the text before it's sent with color escape sequences that the terminal already recognizes[1]. I'm not sure if this could be done from a plugin, but it could probably be done in Geany's source code, although considering how esoteric an option it is, it seems unlikely to be a desired feature for most. I could be wrong.
I'm not sure something like that is fitting into core, but also not sure at the moment whether it can be done as a plugin.
