Description poiuty 2015-12-01 15:43:14 UTC
One day I install ubuntu 15.10 with new gnome.
I open five terminals and try set title but cant find it. WTF?

Ok, I start find solution. Try add bash func in ~/.bashrc
function set-title() {
  if [[ -z "$ORIG" ]]; then
    ORIG=$PS1
  fi
  TITLE="\[\e]2;$@\a\]"
  PS1=${ORIG}${TITLE}
}

It work only local. When I connect to remote server title change.
And if I use screen => title change again.

Why you remove such cool and userfrendly option? Get back!
