Given you're using tcsh, try something like this in your .tcshrc:
set prompt =3D "%B%m%b:%c03:%# "
if ( $?TERM ) then
switch ($TERM)
case xterm:
case xterm-color:
set prompt =3D '%{\033]0;%n@%m:%/\007%}%B%m%b:%c03:%# '
breaksw
case screen:
set prompt =3D '[%B%m%b]:%c03:%# '
breaksw
default:
set prompt =3D '%B%m%b:%c03:%# '
breaksw
endsw
endif
That sets your prompt to look like eg.
lucid-nonsense:~:%
(except the hostname bit is in bold)
and for any terminal that behaves like an xterm -- which includes both
Terminal.app and iTerm.app -- it sets the title bar to eg
matthew@lucid-nonsense:/home/matthew
The other cases in that switch statement are used for different terminal
types.
Cheers,
Matthew
