Ok, that took some effort, but I have it working. Registry key: C:\cygwin\bin\mintty -e /bin/bash --login PS1: PS1='\[\e]0;$(pwd)\a\]\n\[\e[32m\]$(pwd)\[\e[0m\]\n\! \$ ' I played with the default prompt to understand how it got the titlebar working because mine didn’t. I figured out which part does it: \[\e]0;$(pwd)\a\]\n Where: \[\e]0; starts it And: \a\]\n ends it And everything in between: $(pwd) is the title But I couldn't find references to those character sequences anywhere. Could you explain what they mean? Thanks, -Kevin
