Find current tab in Terminal with Applescript

I want to be able to execute an osascript from within my .profile when terminal tabs are starting, which will find the tab object that the script is currently running in, and allow me to access the background color of the tab.

I can find the background colour of all tabs using a script, but I wnat to be able to find THIS tab, for every tab that is being opened, or re-opened on system restart.

Unfortunately, I can't help you much more than beyond what I'm about to say but it looks as if the AppleScript dictionary has the answer for you. Under "Terminal Suite," there's a collection for "settings set" of which "background colour" is a property. Maybe that'll work for you.
