Customize Window Title Bar like macOS Default Terminal #7407

Hi Everyone,

Does the Kitty terminal allow the user to customize the window title bar beyond including the present-working-directory on macOS? My intention is to emulate the window title bar setup of the default macOS terminal in Kitty, as I am trying to migrate from the macOS terminal to Kitty.

Here is what the default macOS terminal looks like with the setup that I have for it:

Basically, I am curious if Kitty supports a similar window title customization feature like the macOS terminal, like so:

The window title can show anything you like. Configure your shell to set the window title using the set title escape codes. Once you do so, all terminals will show whatever that is in their title bars.
