Version: (using KDE 4.2.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Mandriva RPMs Setting the tab title with the current directory automatically is a great feature, but it sometimes fails. For example, the current path is: "/home/benoit/gambas/3.0/trunk/gb.qt/src", and the title is "gb.qt/s". I attach a screenshot of one of my opened konsole.

This is actually intentional. It makes it easier to tell tabs apart when you have multiple tabs opened in similarly named directories. For example: /home/yourname/project1/src/ /home/yourname/project2/src/ /home/yourname/project2/some-external-library/src/share Are renamed to 'project1/s', 'project2/s', 'some-external-library/s/s' The list of directory names is hard-coded although there is a hidden config option to change it.
OK! So clever that I didn't imagine it was intentional... :-)
Robert: is it possible to change the text color for /only/ the abbreviated portion? That would make it more obvious that konsole is doing something "special"...

Should this be merged with bug 167590 ? Thanks
