Subject: Automatically setting buffer name for term buffers
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2009 15:35:46 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9316c365-935b-4351-aa2b-d2a626a0a74d@r33g2000yqn.googlegroups.com> (raw)
When I use an xterm, I can set my shell prompt so that it puts the
current directory (or whatever..) in the xterm title bar. Is there a
way I can do this with an emacs term buffer? I would want to change
the buffer name to something that came from the shell that's executing
in the buffer. This way, when I look at the buffer list, it would be
easy to distinguish which term buffer is which. I don't want to have
to enter the name manually.
