Looks like I have to re-open this. Now, when I set the profile to "Keep
initial title" and then try to change the title using "Terminal>Set
Title...", the correct title is in the dialog, but the title of the
window/tab is the initial title. So it appears that not even gnome-
terminal can change the title with that setting.

What I am desiring:
Open several tabs with different working directories (my typical development 
environment) and name them according to the work I will do in them, but for 
other terminals, to be able to change the title using the set title.

It seems as if there is a one-or-the-other philosophy here. I would
expect that starting a term with "--title" or using the "Set Title" menu
item always overrides the title (aka bash shouldn't change the title).
If no --title was given or if "Set Title" is never called, it should use
the default title of the program ([EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~)

Any ideas on how to get that to work without having to make different
profiles and get them to work?

PS - konsole does this fine. I am trying to switch to gnome-terminal
since I am using gnome at the moment and gnome-terminal fonts look
better than konsole for some reason (kde3 version was better)
