I've noticed that running emerge changes the title in my xterm or Eterm window while it is running, and when it's done changes it to "xterm." I would like to leave my window titles the way I have them set. I would really like to have it back to what it was originally before I ran emerge when it's done. (Having an Eterm with a title of "xterm" is rather silly.)

Running "emerge --help" doesn't show any command line options that say anything about this.

Hi,

I think the easiest way would be to switch the "dotitles" flag in output.py.

Code:
$your-favorite-editor /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/output.py

Line ~8:
Code:
dotitles=0

Put "notitles" into the FEATURES entry in /etc/make.conf

What if I want it to mess with titles, but not set it to xterm when it's done. Is there a way to define what I want set at the end?

There is still an open bug on this. Even if you have

Code:
FEATURES='notitles'


your title won't be set, but it will be set to 'xterm' after emerge is done.
