Thanks.
I have put the following in my .bashrc and it's giving me exactly what I want.
ssh() { screen -t "${1...@}" ssh "$@"; }
BTW, I have ~/.ssh/config file setup with ssh keys and all the options
I need so in
the (bash) prompt all I do is type: ssh <servername> and I get a new screen
window with <servername> as the title.
Out of curiosity: would anyone know what these "${1...@}" ssh "$@"; means?
Thanks again.
