That doesn't apply in Konsole for one. Don't know if it applies in

You may be talking about different things. PS1 applies to
the shell running in the terminal. It sounds like you're
thinking of the terminal window's title, perhaps?
I assumed that was what the OP was talking about. If he meant the Shell
prompt, perhaps he was unfamiliar with the usual terminology.

How might I turn off (or change) the display of the current path in a
terminal window?
For example I have one terminal window with:

His plaint was that the prompt fills the line; he seeks a shorter prompt.
My point was that the question is poorly phrased.
Story of my life and one of my wife's big complaints. Doesn't help
being dyslexic and Mr. Malaprop.
It mentions "the display of the current path in the terminal window", when the actual
issue has absolutely nothing to do with terminal windows. The exact
same thing would happen in a virtual console or a glass teletype, since
it's really about the Shell, not the particular display being used. My
mistake for reading what the question said rather than what (in
hindsight) it really meant.
I learn from these threads and HOPEFULLY remember for the next time. I
DO make notes...
Thanks all!
