And to quote a responder from that thread: [QUOTE]this is non-standard behavior, and you should have a darn good reason for doing this.[/QUOTE] I don't consider this a good reason, dam or otherwise, to try to implement. The mintty window title changes assuming that PS1 is set to change it with the directory change or some other method. The mouse over on the task bar icon will give the full title of the window. I don't see this as an issue. -- Earnie -- https://sites.google.com/site/earnieboyd -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
