nnn should show the directory it is currently on in the title on first open (when launching through a shortcut)

As it is right now nnn won't show which directory it is on in the title, it is only when you move to another directory that it will show.

For example, I launch nnn through my window manager shortcut (Super key + F), it will open on the home folder but the title will be blank, only when I navigate to another folder it will show in the title.

This does not happen if you launch it directly from the terminal.

It works fine for me using xterm -e nnn -x. Maybe foot is overriding the title? Try some other terminals (xterm if possible) and see if you can reproduce or not.

Yeah, something wrong is going on with foot, I'll try to report it, thank you

Hello @N-R-K, sorry to bother you, did you manage to figure out why it's popping the title on the foot terminal?

did you manage to figure out why it's popping the title on the foot terminal?

I didn't have time for it, so no. And I see it as a minor issue so it's not a priority for me either.

Apparently according to foot's developer it's not a bug with foot

I'm using this function in my zsh config to make foot update the window title. It works with nnn, as well.

# Called before prompt(?)
function precmd {
    # Set window title
    print -Pn "\e]0;%(1j,%j job%(2j|s|); ,)%~\e\\"
}

# Called when executing a command
function preexec {
    print -Pn "\e]0;${(q)1}\e\\"
}
