I've fiddled with this for quite a while, and I finally have gotten it to work! I wanted the names on the Konsole session tabs to match the last node of the working directory; that makes it much easier to pick the right tab. The change is triggered by bash routine kcd (konsole cd) and the code that actually changes the tab name is changeKonsoleSessionName. I've attached the pieces of code that do the job. (changeKonsoleSessionName is written in Rexx. Sorry, but the string manipulation tools in bash are just awful; but the code is probably clear enough, and could be rewritten by an enterprising person. :-) I was thinking of adding something to change the text colour of the tab, but there doesn't seem to be a DCOP method for doing that. :-( Leslie -- Platform: Linux Distribution: openSUSE Leap 15.4 - x86_64 Desktop Environment: Trinity Qt: 3.5.0 TDE: R14.1.0 tde-config: 1.0
