Giving a name to a Terminal in "Xfce" desktop environment
Hi,
I work noramly with 3/4/5 Terminals (not xterms) open. In the different Terminal I set different tools (software).
Unfortunately I loose easily the overview of all these Terminals. Which setup is in which Terminal?
It would be nice to have a possibility to name Termianls. By the way I work in a desktop environment called "Xfce".
Does anybody know how to do it?
I face the same issue for workspaces. I am able to name them (I can see it in properties) but the name is not
displayed on workspace button.
What terminal software are you using? It's probably possible to name them with shell commands inside the terminal, many will change their titles given the right escape sequence. This should work with xterm-likes. (But not just xterms. Many are compatible with this sequence, up to and including windows PUTTY.)
If they don't respond to xterm sequences, you'll have to tell us what your terminals are, not just what they aren't.
How do I modify the name of an open existing xterm window? I do not wish to open a new xterm.
That is precisely what my first answer does:
If this doesn't work, the commandline switch may be overriding it. You should fix whatever script runs it with that to not do that.
