Differentiate opened sketches

It could be me, but often I get confused when opening multiple sketches, often old versions of the same code which is confusing. I would like to see something like this. Example with colors. Not my intention to change the arduino brand styling.

Excuse me if i hit enter for a new line the post alread posts. Jeez you are fast to respond :-p.

Confused by what?

The sketches should have different names. The default name is (today's date).ino, but you can name the sketches any valid file name.

Nice idea @jamenesus

Hi @jamenesus. There is a similar feature request here:

That one is a bit different in that it only requests coloration to reflect the port selection, rather than always using a different color for each window.

In this case, I would expect that the sketch name displayed in the window title and primary editor tab would be sufficient to allow you to be able to differentiate them.
