15 Jan 09 How To Set The Window/XTerm Title
I find it useful to set the window title of my terminals for long running processes so I can see at a glace what is happening in the window or where in the process running in that window is at. In scripts I will use the following:
echo "\033]0;Window for ${USER}\007"
Of course replace “Window for ${USER}” with whatever is appropriate for your use.
