Hello Barry,
Following your advice I get: dencar (~) $ at the prompt. The aterm titlebar
reads: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ which is correct. Can you help further with the prompt
to have it specify user dennis, please. TIA. BTW there is a script in
~/.bashrc to change the window title of X terminals, which I assume is
producing the titlebar entry I mentioned.
