That makes sense. So the question is, how do you set the icon title in gnome-terminal? [EMAIL PROTECTED]:551]$ gnome-terminal --icon foo Option --icon is no longer supported in this version of gnome-terminal; you might want to create a profile with the desired setting, and use the new --window-with-profile option However, the profile settings do not have an icon name field. I guess what you're saying is that there is one of two bugs in gnome-terminal: either the terminal name isn't getting applied to the icon name, or the icon name field is missing.
