Yakuake set tab title #22

Hi,
I've recently moved from xfce4 to kde, and with that have been trying to adopt yakuake instead of xfce4-terminal, which was one of my most used tools.

I've now learned about working in q/d-bus which is new to me, but all of my efforts to recreate what I had with xfce4-terminal have turned up nothing. Maybe it's just a limitation, but I'm trying to turn over every stone before giving up.

I asked for help on the kde forums, but no one answered. (Which is nothing new there)
https://discuss.kde.org/t/yakuake-qdbus-help/16383

It seems this installation is pretty non-standard as well in that qtchooser is deprecated and would have to be installed in /usr/local according to the Arch Wiki. (I use Arch).

Anyway, I stumbled on your git by accident, but seems you are more qualified to answer this than anywhere else I've found. Is it actually possible to launch a new tab in yakuake from krusader, and have the tab title reflect the path it was launched from?

My service menu for xfce4-terminal was xfce4-terminal --tab --drop-down --default-working-directory=%d, and the tab title would be the path automatically, but you could also set the title to whatever you wanted with title=""

Thanks for any input.

Hi @akovia,
the /yakuake/tabs path contains the methods to read and write the session's tab: org.kde.yakuake.setTabTitle does
the trick for you.
