Description Tim Waugh 1999-12-02 13:10:50 UTC 
If you start gnome-terminal in gnome, and then log out saving settings,
when you log in again the window title is blank (and shows up as '???' in
the panel).
Comment 1 Havoc Pennington 1999-12-03 19:58:59 UTC 
gnome-terminal code looks correct to me; this is likely a session manager
or gnome-libs problem. Needs a fairly in-depth investigation.
Comment 2 Preston Brown 2000-02-16 15:36:59 UTC 
any progress here?
Comment 3 Havoc Pennington 2000-02-17 17:49:59 UTC 
It works for me in Rawhide if you set the title with the --title command line
argument;
if you set the title with terminal escape sequences it deliberately doesn't
remember the title, since this is typically used to report current directory.
