You're welcome, but sheesh, call me Rob :

One final word for those who were following this thread.

This

  if [ ${PS1:-UNSET} = UNSET ]

should have been

  if [ ${PS1:-UNSET} = UNSET ]

Without the quotes, you can get problems when you have a prompt with
escape characters.

  Rob, thanks a lot for your script. I think there is a small glitch,
  though:
  export PROMPT_COMMAND='eval set_titlebar [EMAIL PROTECTED]:`my_dirname`'

Yup,  kill the eval and life is good.  Thanks,  Mr. Browning.
