I created a file of aliases for all of the servers I connect to:
alias server='echo -e "\ekservername\e\\" && ssh server <ssh options>
&& echo -e "\ekbash\e\\"'
(all on one line) This will change the window title (akin to Ctrl-A
Shift-A) to the servername and back again when I exit that server. An
actual line (with ip obscured) looks like this:
alias archivedb='echo -e "\ekarchivedb\e\\" && ssh aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd -p
24021 -o GSSAPIAuthentication=no -t "screen -RDl" && echo -e
"\ekbash\e\\"'
