Does anyone know if there is a way to set the tint color of an aterm

aterm -tr -tint blue -trsb -rv -geometry 179x33 --font4
I know I can write a script to randomize the color if I need to, I'm
just not sure how to implement it with the -tint switch.
Thanks,

It just occured to me that I can do this by writing a script to randomly
choose from a list of aterm calls, rather than just randomizing the tint
color. I can do this if need be, but am still curious if just the tint
color by itself can be randomized.

Make your script echo the randomly selected color on stdout, and
surround it with back-quotes, like so:
aterm -tr -tint `random_color.sh` -trsb -rv -geometry 179x33 --font4
