It's only hosed as long as you are in a directory which contains the

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ echo $PROMPT_COMMAND
echo -ne "\033]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ${PWD/$HOME/~}\007"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ unset PROMPT_COMMAND
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd -
/tmp/test/c\c
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/test/c\c$ cd - # look ma, no display problems
/home/era
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
