Version: (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources OS: Linux When in ~/tmp there is a strange title given to the tab. This does not happen with most directories. ~ -> title = 'mike : bash' ~/tmp -> title = 'mike/t : bash' # this is the bug ~/a -> title = 'a : bash' ~/tmp is a normal directory with normal permissions (755)
I can confirm that bug with Konsole 2.1 from KDE4.1RC1 Kubuntu packages.
This behaviour is intentional. Common directory names like 'src', 'tmp', 'doc' etc. are shortened to a single letter and the name of the preceeding directory is inserted. This is because if there are several tabs open in say, projecta/src, projectb/src, projectc/doc, then just the last part of the name would not be very helpful: src | src | doc Instead you see something more useful: projecta/s | projectb/s | projectc/d
Unconfirming as per comment #2
Closing since this is expected behavior. Might think of ways to make it more obvious why this is happening in future.
Any further thoughts on this? If I understood correctly this only makes sense if there is a preceeding directory, i.e. if there is none, this is a bug.
