By default, Sakura doesn't change title of window or Tab to the current folder name, as I get the impression it does on your system. I have had a report previously by someone adding stuff to bashrc to make it so - have you something similar installed to your bashrc? See the previous Sakura bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=821783 and http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Xterm-Title-3.html As Sakura does set UTF-8 names correctly on both Window title and tab title for me, I am guessing that you are using some xterm escape sequences in a faulty way. -- Andreas Rönnquist gus...@debian.org
