I wish I had time to dig into this today but I don't.

Anyone else see this message when restarting Terminal?

/.colors/col1.sh: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''

I think the original post is missing ' s and has " in place of ' s

as follows:

$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {47802,6909,1222, -20750}'" > col1.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {2570,33924,20, -20750}" > col2.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {21570,3324,5000, -20750}" > col3.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {30810,26728,12934, -20750}" > col4.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {23387,2313,59367, -20750}" > col5.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {2570,33924,46774, -20750}" > col6.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {59367,23387,2313, -20750}" > col7.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {2313,5367,23387, -20750}" > col8.sh
should be:
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {47802,6909,1222, -20750}' > col1.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {2570,33924,20, -20750}' > col2.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {21570,3324,5000, -20750}' > col3.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {30810,26728,12934, -20750}" > col4.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {23387,2313,59367, -20750}' > col5.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {2570,33924,46774, -20750}' > col6.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \

$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app "Terminal" to \
set background color to {2313,5367,23387, -20750}' > col8.sh

Actually, it should be:

$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app \"Terminal\" to \
set background color to {47802,6909,1222, -20750}'" > col1.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app \"Terminal\" to \
set background color to {2570,33924,20, -20750}'" > col2.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app \"Terminal\" to \
set background color to {21570,3324,5000, -20750}'" > col3.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app \"Terminal\" to \
set background color to {30810,26728,12934, -20750}'" > col4.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app \"Terminal\" to \
set background color to {23387,2313,59367, -20750}'" > col5.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app \"Terminal\" to \
set background color to {2570,33924,46774, -20750}'" > col6.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app \"Terminal\" to \
set background color to {59367,23387,2313, -20750}'" > col7.sh
$ echo "osascript -e 'tell front window of app \"Terminal\" to \
set background color to {2313,5367,23387, -20750}'" > col8.sh
$ chmod u+x col*.sh

Someone please help, I'm clueless on this one.

There's an error in the hint:
/.colors/col1.sh
is an absolute reference to rootlevel of the harddisk

it should be
.colors/col1.sh
without the first slash
