If it doesn't:              a) you aren't using bash. Maybe it needs to be enabled in your shell?              b) bash is not configured to set the title, I'm not sure where you'd find       that              c) your terminal is not advertising itself as a suitable type that uses the       escape code. What's your TERM variable set to?              d) your terminal is choosing not to display it, for some reason (perhaps       the configuration you mention above)              Theo              --- PyGate Linux v1.5.11        * Origin: Dragon's Lair, PyGate NNTP<>Fido Gate (3:633/10)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 134 200 206 300 317 400 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/470 616 664 700 705 266/512 291/111 292/854 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/10 280 414 418 420 422 509 2744       SEEN-BY: 712/848 770/1 902/26 2320/105 5020/400 5075/35       PATH: 633/10 280 229/426           |
