[gentoo-user] OT: auto rename konsole session tabs?

2006-10-03 Thread James 
Hello

OT:  I use kde and quite a lot of konsole sessions for  admin of many other
systems.  I currently manually use 'rename' in kde to put the system's 
hostname into the tab (located at the bottom of the window), for quick 
reference. Is there a way (trick) to automatically do this? 

My prompt (command line) does this automatically, I just want the hostname
of the remote host(or IP address)  I ssh into to replace the 'shell #' 
that is there by default. If not ssh'd into a remote system, then the 
default 'shell #' is ok as the default.


thoughts and ideas are most welcome,

James

 dcop, and a wrapper around ssh, is the only way I can think of.

 dcop konsole-{PID} $(dcop konsole-{PID} konsole currentSession) \
 renameSession ${HOSTNAME}

 I don't however have a reliable way of figuring out the PID of the current
 konsole process.
 Or, perhaps I do. http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2004/04/msg00271.html

This konsolescript does what you need. Logging to remote it shows on tab 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] , on local it shows user or programm runing.
