Hi Guys.

I have an profile with ssh.exe which connects to one of my linux boxes. All works fine but i would like to adjust it a little bit.

My problem is that when i connect to that linux box then tab title is automatically changed to 'OpenSSH SSH client". I would like to to keep it as i named it "My linux box".

I tried to use:

        "name" : "My linux box",
        "tabTitle" : "My Linux Box",

in profile config but tab title still changes.

Is there any way of getting rid off dynamically changed tab titles or setting up static tab title which never changes?

Thank you.

Thank you guys.

By the way... impressive piece of work that terminal is...

May i ask one more thing out of the topic?

I like to understand what i use best i can.

One thing which i cannot figure out is that why when you specify paths in "commandline" parameter, to separate folders you need to use / and not \ like in rest of Windows system?

Thanks for any clues in that matter.

@4k3or3et You can definitely use \ as a path separator, but because the file is a JSON file, you need to make sure to escape it properly 😉 \ is the escape character for JSON files, so you need to use "\" whenever you want a single \.
