Description of problem: the title of the console is too long Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.4.3 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. cd directory1 2. cd directory2 3. ... Actual results: the title in the bar is too long, it should be better to truncate it Expected results: Additional info: my $PS1 is \[\033[0;35m\]\u@\h:\[\033[0;33m\]\w\[\033[00m\]>
I think it relies on your PS1, so this is up to you to customize it. You may want to bring this to upstream but as far as Fedora is concerned, this is not a bug to me.
yes, it is not a bug, but I think you should fix it. With some special PS1 (for example mine) guake is unusable. Also for very long directory. I think you should add something like this: string shorten_title(const string & console_title_display, int max_length) { return console_title_display.substr(0, max_length-3) + "..."; } string console_title = ... string console_title_display = console_title; if (console_title_display > MAX_TITLE_LENGTH) { console_title_display = shorten_title(console_title_display, MAX_TITLE_LENGTH); }
Feel free to propose a patch upstream to shorten it when needed, the sources are on both github and gitorious.
