Subject: [gentoo-user] Setting Putty window title to currently executing command
Date: Sat, 06 Dec 2008 21:11:39
Message-Id: 20081206211135.GA1739@crow.localdomain
1 I seem to remember ssh'ing into an old Gentoo box and having the window
2 title change to the currently executing command. For instance, when
3 emerging something that had 10 packages, the title would show something
4 like
5
6 emerging (4 of 10) perl_something_or_other
7
8 I'm not sure whether I was using screen at the time, or not. I'm not
9 even positive I was using Putty (I might have been on another 'nix).
10
11 Can anyone help me out?

13 Thanks,
