automatically change the gnome-terminal "title" for the window
- by tom
Hi.
Trying to change the title of a current gnome-terminal (similar to the "set title" that you can do manually")
The system is running Fedora 9. The HowTo Xterm-Title discusses how to set the prompt, for an xterm. Tried to implement the escape sequences with no luck. (might be something weird..)
Tried to use the gconftool to dump/change/load the changed conf attributes, and again, no luck. Also, set the PROMPT_COMMAND just in case the prompt command was somehow changing the title back (which is highly doubtful)
Searching the 'net indicates that a few people have tried to solve this with no luck...
I'd also like to figure out how to create a new gnome-terminal with a unique specified title...
once this is solved, i'l gladly create a quick writeup/post onn how to accomplish this for others...
thanks
