BurpTabEssentials

This changes the style of Burp Suite's Repeater tabs to help the testers.

These features have been added by traversing the Java UI objects and manipulating them along the way. Therefore, it might not be as good as other built-in features, but that's the only thing we have at the moment to change the tab colours or their style :-)

Installation and Usage

Download the jar file from the release section
Add it to Burp Suite using the Extender tab
You can use the following key combinations:

Combination	Description
Right Click	Show Context Menu
Right Click + CTRL	Increase the Font Size + Bold
Right Click + CTRL + SHIFT	Decrease the Font Size + Bold
Right Click + SHIFT	Big + Green + Bold
Right Click + ALT	Big + Blue + Bold
Right Click + CTRL + ALT	Big + Orange + Bold
Right Click + CTRL + ALT + Shift	Fun!

Thanks to

The simple idea behind changing a repeater tab colour came originally from a private extension written by Bruno Demarche a few years before this extension. That extension changed the text colour of a repeater tab when a comment was added to a request.

Limitations

It does not save the settings – they need to be saved against the project file
It's been tested against v2.0.x but should work fine against v1.7.x
It might be confused if you add the extension more than once or reload it multiple times (try to restart burp)
