konsole tab title with files opened


How can I make konsole tabs to change their title dynamically when I open different files with vim.

I wish each tab would have the filename of the opened file with vim.

If anyone can give me a hand I would be more than thankful.

Thanks

Here is the command to change the tab name:

dcop $KONSOLE_DCOP_SESSION renameSession "<new tab name>"

This assumes you are running in a command line shell where KONSOLE_DCOP_SESSION is set, which it won't be if, say, you ssh to a different machine.

I don't use vim so I can't give you a good answer to the other half of your question.
