    Aha; thanks.

    % You can manually set it in ~/.bashrc or comment out the line
    % PS1="${_t}${_u}:\w${_p} "
    % as it is commented out in the other two cases, or any combination thereof.

    Well, I see that, and I will definitely try changing that and starting
    new xterms as well as restarting KDE, *BUT* that doesn't answer the
    question of why it updates my titlebars, or at least not that I've found.

    Interestingly enough, I do not see any value for $_t or ${_t} in my
    shell, but $PS1 includes lovely escape sequences :-(

    ARRRGH!
