Is it possible to make Gnome Terminal show the name of the file I am editting in vim as the tab title?

Solution 1:

From vim.wikia.com:

Add this to your .vimrc:

let &titlestring = hostname() . "[vim(" . expand("%:t") . ")]"
if &term == "screen"
  set t_ts=^[k
  set t_fs=^[\
endif
if &term == "screen" || &term == "xterm"
  set title
endif

Solution 2:

More simple way for gnome-terminal, write below in your vimrc :

set title
autocmd BufRead * let &titlestring = expand("%:p")

show only filepath in title
