# Terminal

Sets terminal window and tab titles.

## Settings

### Auto-Title

To auto set the terminal window and tab titles with the current command or
directory, add the following to _`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc`_:

```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:terminal' auto-title 'yes'
```

Auto titling is disabled inside terminal multiplexers (except inside dvtm) since
it interferes with window names defined in configuration files and profile
managers. This can be overridden by setting it to `always`.

```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:terminal' auto-title 'always'
```

### Title formats

To format terminal window and tab titles, add the following to
_`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc`_.

```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:terminal:window-title' format '%n@%m: %s'
zstyle ':prezto:module:terminal:tab-title' format '%m: %s'
zstyle ':prezto:module:terminal:multiplexer-title' format '%s'
```

`%s` will be replaced with the current working directory path or the currently
executing program name.

For a list of sequences, see [Expansion of Prompt Sequences][1].
