[ ... ] I've got a slight problem with having the host/directory/etc on the title bar. It will help clear my zsh right-prompt, of course. But how do you set the title bar *back* to the name of the xterm? (My xterms are titled "Mail", "Net", "Hacking", "Scratch", and so forth.) Is there a way of using xtset/xtermset to retrieve the -n "Name"?? thanks, gary -- Gary Kline [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.thought.org Public service Unix _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
