You can set the tab title of konsole with something like setkonsoletabtitle () { echo -en "\e]30;$*\a" } For ssh I have another shell function: ssh () { setkonsoletabtitle "$1" command ssh "$@" cd . # that sets the tab title back to the normal "local look" here } Of course this only works nicely if you use "ssh host" or "ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]" and not "ssh -l user host".
