OK try these!

these are part of my .tcshrc on both Sun box and Debian

# set prompt  xterm title
  switch ( $TERM )
  case xterm:
  case xterm-debian:
  case xterm-color:
  case rxvt:
  case dtterm:
set prompt = %{\033]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
breaksw
  default:
set prompt = [EMAIL PROTECTED] %~ 
breaksw
  endsw

and .zshrc which I use on most Debian box

case $TERM in
  xterm|xterm-debian|xterm-color|rxvt|dtterm*)
 precmd() {print -Pn \e]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]: %~\a}
 PS1=[EMAIL PROTECTED]  
 ;;
  *)
 PS1=[EMAIL PROTECTED]: %~ 
esac 

Cheers,

Chanop

Hello Peter, HelloPaolo
Thanks for replying

I have been using about the same escape sequence (except in tcsh)
In my .tcshrc...

switch ($TERM)
case {xterm*,rxvt*}:
 alias periodic 'echo -n \033]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]   `date +%A\
\[%d\]\ \ %B`\007'
set prompt=%n:%c03%#
breaksw
default:
set prompt=%n:%c4%#
breaksw

the problem..
Telneting to debian machine seems to work fine
But under other OS (still xterm terminal not dtterm or any other) the shell
just change the prompt to
\033]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]   Wednesday [05]   April \007
I cant figure out if the problem is on the escape sequence, the xterm
version, or the echo command?
I have try all the combinations of /bin/echo, builtin echo, and the argg -n
, -n -e
Any idea??

Peter: The relative HOWTO claims tha the same espace sequence works with
dtterm to.Well ..i had the same problem.(Solaris 7 sun4u)

 Ciao Nikos Voutsinas,

   I would like (somehow) to change dynamically xterm title according to
the LOGNAME and HOSTNAME env. Anyone who can help?

 you can start from this function in /etc/profile:

 if [ -n $DISPLAY ]; then
 cd ()
 { builtin cd $*  echo -n -e \\033]0; $TERM: $PWD \a; }
 echo -n -e \\033]0; $TERM: $PWD \a
 export -f  cd
 fi

 and change it for your needs.

 Ciao

Hello I've got the following pieces of code in my .bashrc/ .bash_profile:

setxtermtitle() { echo -ne \033];$*\007; }

case $TERM in
 xterm*)
 PS1=\[\e]0;\u \h: \w\a\]\w:

 *)
 PS1=\w

if [ $UID = 0 ]; then
PS1=$PS1'$SHLVL# '

PS1=$PS1'$SHLVL '
fi
export PS1
