Aha! You're absolutely right, Dominic...
"However, as you can see, the way it works is to send all hardstatus
information to the title. If you set
'alwayslastline' for the hardstatus, it is never sent to the terminal so the
title remains as screen.
What we probably need is a patch for screen to allow two hardstatus lines to
be set, one that is only ever
sent to the terminal (that can be used as window title) and one that is only
sent to screen (for when
alwayslastline is set). That way screen-profiles can still continue to use
the hardstatus for displaying status
information etc. but we can still set the window title"
So I could get the window title to track the current directory, but it
would only do so when I disabled the 'hardstatus alwayslastline' bit.
Of course, that line is a huge chunk of byobu's value. I agree with
you, that we need to patch screen, such that it would allow for a
separation of the window title from the hardstatus.
I'm marking confirmed against screen, and invalid against byobu. If I
find some time, I'll try to work on the screen patch.
Cheers,
