[Konsole-devel] Extension of XTerm hack? (#36354)

[Stephan Binner]

Hello,

execution of "dcop $KONSOLE_DCOP_SESSION renameSession $PWD" seems not 
possible inside a Bash prompt and 'export PS1=$PS1"\[\e]0;\w\a\]' only
(should) set caption but doesn't rename session. Any objections against

which extends XTerm's hack and allows 'export PS1=$PS1"\[\e]3;\w\a\]'
to rename the session going into KDE 3.0 (despite of feature freeze)? 

We could also occupy what=4 to let Konsole know current directory 
without setting caption and rename session later for wishes as 
"Bookmarks" menu (#25319) and "save cwd on exit" (#37865).

Bye,
