On first glance, this works great, it doesn't clobber the icon name and the
window title name is set correctly.
However, now when I ssh into another machine, the icon name (in the
terminal tab) doesn't update to the name of the machine I connected to,
while the window title does.
Anyhow, thanks f
Hi Nicholas,
Thanks so much for your reply.
I'm closer, but still not getting it. Right now, I have in my ~/.tmux.conf:
set-option -g set-titles on
set-option -g set-titles-string "#T [tmux #I: #W]"
set-option -g terminal-overrides "*:tsl=\e]2;,*:fsl=\a"
But it gives me:
computer_name ~ [tmux
When I do that, I get:
computer_name ~ [tmux 0: bash]007
in the window title, and also:
?25l
in the terminal. Any other hints? Or do you think this may be a bug with
the terminal I'm using?
Thanks.

Try \\007.

Change \a to \007.

You can control what escape sequences tmux uses to set the title by
changing the tsl and fsl terminfo entries (with tmux terminal-overrides
option or a custom terminfo). By default it uses tsl=\e]0; which is
the xterm sequence to change icon name and window title, I suspect you
want to change that
I've been using something like "\e]1;TAB_NAME\a" in my PS1 environment
variable to set my terminal emulator's tab name.
I use something like "\e]2;WINDOW_TITLE\a" in my PS1 to set the terminal
emulator's titlebar name.
When I use tmux, I've been using:
set-option -g set-titles on
set-option -g s
