Use this little script to set your window title in an xterm window:
Save it in a script, e.g. title.sh
title.sh without any parameter will set the window title to the hostname.
If any commandline parameter is given, the window title will be set to th whole string ($*).
#!/bin/sh
[ $# -ne 0 ] && export TITLE=$* || {
export TITLE=$(hostname)
}
echo "\033]0;$TITLE\007"
Works with Linux and AIX (should work with any UNIX-like system).
