Saying 'ls' doesn't help!
OK, I want to know exactly what good you guys think it is for the title bar to say 'ls'. It gives me NO useful information at all. Now can any of you *nix wizards figure out a way to put the path up there, so it says 'ls /Applications/' for example? That would be very nice.
More form the Howto
Actually, the referenced howto also gives a clever way to put the working directory in the title bar, flexible enough that you can have it exactly as in Terminal.app's default prompt. (That is, limit it to the last 3 components of the path, and replace $HOME by ~.) Again this works on the Mac, and can be done as follows. Create a file named 'rc.mine' in ~/Library/init/tcsh/; edit it to contain this line:
set prompt = "%{^[]0;%c3^G%}[%m:%c3] %n%# "where again ^[ and ^G are typed as escape sequences; and save. If you have both this rc.mine and the suggested aliases.mine, then... well, see for yourself :-)
(Incidentally, does anyone know if and how one can type those escape sequences in TextEdit, or BBEdit?)
