and nothing will change the tab\u2019s title.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I\u2019ve been looking for this a few times without success. There are some nasty proposals with setting PS1 variable or other tricks with .bashrc<\/i> mods. Weak and doesn\u2019t actually work.
\nI needed a way to make a bash script that opens several tabs with fixed titles and with fixed start directories and with already started programs (for example tail\/less<\/i> of log files). Or solutions are very complicated.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a simple way.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a nice option for gnome-terminal -t \u201cTab title\u201d<\/i> which allows you to set a title for a tab. But in default profile (a switchable terminal behavior configuration) any program or bash prompt can change tab\u2019s title. So actually setting tab title doesn\u2019t work permanently.<\/p>\n
A good solution is to create a new profile (let\u2019s call it \u201cNoTitleChange\u201d) with options set to not to allow tab change. To do this, in gnome-terminal go to Edit->profiles\u2026<\/i>\u00a0click New, <\/i>apply new name. Then in tab Title and Command<\/i>\u00a0from drop box (When commands set own title\u2026) <\/i>choose Keep initial title.<\/i>
\n
\n<\/i>
\nNow you can invoke<\/p>\n
gnome-terminal\u00a0\u2013tab-with-profile=NoTitileChange -t \u201cMy Permanent title\u201d<\/span><\/i>
\n
\n<\/span><\/p>\nand nothing will change the tab\u2019s title.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
