I am having trouble getting emacs title to show full path, I followed below thread and copied the setq-default cmd into my ~/.emacs, but it still shows emacs@host in the title. I am using emacs 24.3.1 on GNU/Linux

(setq-default frame-title-format '("%f [%m]"))

How to change the frame title from `emacs@host` to visited file name

    Did you restart emacs after you changed the `.emacs` file? – NickD Sep 08 '22 at 21:50
  • Yes, I opened new emacs windows. – asp Sep 10 '22 at 23:13
  • Depending on what exactly you did, that may not be enough. Did you kill the emacs that you were running before you changed the file? And then started a brand-spanking-new instance of emacs that did not have *any* relation to the previous one? – NickD Sep 11 '22 at 00:31
  • yes I opened a brand new emacs window, even on a new terminal window – asp Sep 11 '22 at 06:32
