Description Ciaran McCreesh 2004-07-02 16:50:13 UTC
Portage's XTerm titles are too long and badly ordered, so the useful information gets clipped when terminal titlebars are short (example: when on a laptop with tabbed windows in fluxbox). Instead of:

=== (3 of 9) Compiling/Packaging (foo/bar-1.23::/var/portage/foo/bar

I would prefer:

(3 of 9) foo/bar-1.23: Compiling/Packaging (/var/portage/foo/bar)

That way the information which is actually useful is most likely to be visible.
