OSX Terminal: Adding current folder to the title!

Posted bylantean

If you’re just like me, and have lots of Terminal tabs open, you probably end up typing ‘pwd’ all the time.

Luckily, there is an easy solution:

  1. Create a file named ‘.profile’, in your user’s home.
  2. Type the following string in there!:
    [cc lang=”bash”]export PROMPT_COMMAND=’echo -ne “\033]0;[${PWD/$HOME/~}]\007″‘[/cc]

That’s it!. You’re gonna have, from now on, the current working directory right there in the windows tab!.
