I'm using Console 2 and msysgit's bash to SSH into my Linux machines. There, I'm using screen (but considering tmux and/or byobu), but currently simply with one single-terminal session per Console2-tab. However, screen won't pass through the xterm escape sequence to change the tab title e.g. to the current path, which would be rather helpfull. So

  • How to modify the xterm title from within screen?
  • Should I use Console2 tabs or screen windows?
  • Anything else to make life easier? (Yes, sorry, this is vague, consider the first bullet the actual question)
