Since I found it useful to see on what machine a (9 x)^term
is logged in to (in unix, not all machines are equal),
my labels currently show a user@host next to the directory
One disadvantage: the menu gets very wide
(this is less noticable when mozilla is running - also it
generates sometimes very wide labels).
(also, the scheme of "/dir/path user@home" didn't seem to
integrate perfectly with win in acme - but I seldomly use win).
I hacked 9term to be able to take the directory part of
the labels I use (such that plumbing works).
Because I was unsure about general interest, I think I
did not provide a patch. If there is interest, let me know.
(I also hacked 9term to display a ? cursor when plumbing fails;
I think I sent the patch for that to Russ)
Axel.
