I was just trying to reverse-engineer how things are working (by default) on my Debian box. In any case, here it's not vim cleaning up its title after itself, but rather the shell's PS1 restoring it at the next prompt after vim. I just hoped this data point might help you pin-pointing your problem (BTW: vim could only restore the term's title if there were... an escape sequence to either query the title or tell the term to save/restore it. As to how to get xterm's [1] window title, I think you might have to fool around with xprop. Here [2] is some example code. Have fun :) [1] I'm always talking xterm. I guess that this parts are pretty similar (if not identical) to other X based terminal emulators. [2] http://www.shelldorado.com/scripts/cmds/xtitle - tomás
