Gnome-terminal title

Hi guys,

Sorry is this has been posted before but I searched and could not find anything. My Gnome-terminal title does not update as it should. I work on many remote servers daily and when I exit a server the title still says root@server when infact I'm working on my home directory. Is there a way to fix this?

I don't know how to fix this but am interested because I get the same thing happening on XFCEs terminal.

Re: Gnome-terminal title

in gnome-terminal. Open Edit > Current Profile > Title and Command.
Check that 'Dynamically-set title' is set to 'Replace initial title' and not 'Isn't displayed'.

Re: Gnome-terminal title

AFAIK the only solution is to reset the title back to "Terminal", with:

echo -n -e "\e]0;Terminal\a"
