For the record, I have the following in my .bashrc, and this works for me to
update the title (xtup) and icon (xnup) names on each command prompt:
xtup () {
echon \E]2\;$*\a ;
}
xnup () {
echon \E]1\;$*\a ;
}
updcwd()
{
if [ -z "$LogName" ]; then
LogName=`myid`
fi
echon '\E[0m'
xtup "${DEVENV}${WINDOW+" Scr#$WINDOW"} ${HOST} (${LogName}): $PWD
";
xnup "${DEVENV}${WINDOW+" Scr#$WINDOW"} ${HOST} (${LogName}): $PWD
";
#xnup "${HOST} (${LogName})";
}
export PROMPT_COMMAND='updcwd'
(NOTE: \E is escape, \a is bell (alert) and echon takes care of the variations
in echo impl between shells).
HTH,
Darren.
