I see a similarity in the two hacks - you know all the code-hours put into this crazy xterm-title patch could be accomplished with like three lines of shell script. And I was introducing threading routines for this!!! I think the original update_xtt is elegant and useful. To introduce 50 lines of code for a shell-tweak may indeed be overkill (as everyone has alluded to before). The same way that a couple of shell scripts are included with the distribution for the cwd thing - why not include the same thing for the restore_xtt? Package it up nice with a little HOWTO text file in an obvious place (to cover a question/workaround like the one that was just posted to the mc-devel list: msg00098.html). The HOWTO could even contain a link or two to things like: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/mini/Xterm-Title.html and http://www.linuxpowered.com/archive/howto/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO.html Tribhuvan
