Description Josh Berry 2003-10-09 04:39:05 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.2.x 
OS:          Linux

It would be nice if, in a Konsole with multiple tabs, there would be an option to set the title of the tab to the app-supplied title.

For example, my shell is configured to throw up something such as "condor@deneb: ~" into the title bar, to reflect the current user/hostname/directory. It would be nice, in a Konsole with multiple tabs open, to be able to see which tab has which title. This way I could have tabs open on three different hosts which are all, say, monitoring syslogs, and be able to tell at a glance which one is which.

I know I can change the names of the tabs myself... but I'm lazy and it would be nice to have them pick up off the xterm title. ;)

See "Tips of the Day" on how to change you shell your escape sequence to rename 
sessions instead of setting title bar.
