Windows Title remote changing.
I'm changing KiTTY windows title remotely using ESC sequence from server when session initially connects.
However after some time it changes back to what is configured in session's config "Window title".
One way to see it is to use roll-up.
Can this title name reverse change be disabled, so once change upon initial connection window title stays unchanged. For example can I send particular ESC sequence from server to toggle on/off "Disable remote-controlled windows title changing" or any other solution.
Try to add these lines to your %APPDATA%\KiTTY\kitty.ini configuration file:
[KiTTY]
wintitle=no
Seems to work perfectly for me. That was the only thing I added to the ini file; I both exited from all KiTTY instances and rebooted. Now my function to add hostname:/cwd works again. Before this, as the OP pointed out, re-titling the window only lasts for a short while, and the next time you look at the KiTTY window it'll go back to a generic title. If the KiTTY mechanism to title windows had worked, I wouldn't have to have a special function to do this...
