I've been starting to use the telnet feature in cygwin's inetutils a lot lately,
and it would be great if I could learn how to set the label of the bash window
to include hostname as well as the current directory it displays now.
I can't tell which of the two bash windows is which since both are running a 24 hour long FPGA compile..

Is there a way to do this?
I'd be happy if it was a copy of the "PS1" value..
