This allows the window title to be set by the terminal. Is there a way to have a child screen session set the title of the terminal, eg. I run emerge inside a screen inside a screen (like sshing from one computer to another)? Also, is there a way to get the screen title to match the terminal title? > As far as the syntax of the hardstatus I think it may be usual termcap syntax. Can you give me a pointer to where a definition of that syntax is? All I find is for defining capabilities of terminals. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJJpuT1AAoJEJWxx7fgsD+C7s4H/0ZwCpyknJ81JSWtlbMvAgry a4PXBxHy1IS8hRxwOwvSrNqeFcIlfcgv7dZxf0wCYyho8+QOpRNQN6yhI6VeQhqW uye4WIq8tslf9zw3cKZuBNTt7QBVJlmu2uvszCXhI6WUF84QrgdGiBAWoP8A9Hx+ YZHs3LMvbwRRgjqy0WVttg+OVWDq3kuuOi5pMlAKvZ7/5Y1EnS1xCu0uv1F+7UBE /fqBkCzbsaWqM7fdLvBDv1CnKl0FDZNRgOMFbCTDohTfRdPXIzyFPIzxFJBnTimn o32Nx1O69lYbBHNv2NyC9DeObyb9ofB3trPLpI1YBrn1GiCt8llKf6CbKwEed0Q= =scfV -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
