terminator titlebar

hello,

can someone give me some help as to how to change the titlebar of terminator??

right now it reads: user@host: ~ - Terminator

i would like to remove the terminator addendum.. i'm also trying to do the same thing with firefox, but the add-on for titlebar remove doesn't seem to work on crunchbang.. (btw.. using 9.04.1) ..

thanks for any feedback..

Re: terminator titlebar

Just out of curiosity, is it just those two that you would like to remove the titlebar text from, or would you like the title bar in general to not show text?

Re: terminator titlebar

i would like my titlebar to read just "user@host" or "user@host ~" or whatever program im running at the time.. for example right now it reads "mocp - Terminator" and i would like to just be "mocp" in the same way that pcmanfm just has the directory name as the titlebar output..

Re: terminator titlebar

You can add the nightly tester tool addon to change the Firefox titlebar. I use it with FF 3.5 to get "Firefox" as opposed to "Shiretoko" in the titlebar.

Re: terminator titlebar

Salut ak00 ,

you can't remove "Terminator" from config .. You must edit "code" source. So ..

Edit this file ( !! Take care , you need 'user privilege' .. So if you make a mistake !! )   :

sudo geany /usr/share/pyshared/terminatorlib/terminatorterm.py

and modify this line ( ~1287 )

    self.terminator.set_window_title("%s - %s" % (re.sub(' - %s' % APP_NAME.capitalize(), '', title), APP_NAME.capitalize()))

to something like this :

    self.terminator.set_window_title("%s" % (re.sub(' - %s' % APP_NAME.capitalize(), '', title)))

save , launch Terminator , and It should work ( tested , work fine for me )

@bye
