Description

  • OS version and name: Windows 10 64bit

  • Relevent information from devtools: N/A
  • The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: Reproducible in vanilla

Issue

Current directory is not displayed. All tab titles display "Shell" regardless of which shell I am using (tried cmd and Bash on Ubuntu on Windows).

Research direction

Start with the Hyper app's tab-title handling and reproduce the behavior on Windows 10 using cmd and Bash on Ubuntu on Windows. Review the linked .hyper.js gist and compare vanilla Hyper with the reported shells; done means tab titles show the current directory and running process instead of always displaying "Shell".
