I have this in ~/.zshrc. Not sure how to do it in bash (why would you use bash, anyway?). settitle() { case $TERM in *xterm* | *rxvt* | (dt|k|E)term) print -Pn "\e]2;$*\a" ;; esac } seticontitle() { case $TERM in *xterm* | *rxvt* | (dt|k|E)term) print -Pn "\e]1;$*\a" ;; esac } precmd() { [[ -t 1 ]] || return # return if not on a terminal settitle "%n@%m: %~" seticontitle "%n@%m: %~" } P.S. Please wrap lines at 65 columns. -- Eric Gillespie, Jr. <*> epg@pobox.com "Let us be thankful we have commerce. Buy more. Buy more now. Buy. And be happy." --OMM (THX 1138)
