This is the function I use in my ~/.bashrc file:
function termtitle() { PS1="${PS1/\\u@\\h: \\w/$@}"; }
After adding it (or changing it) you must resource your file:
. ~/.bashrc
To use it type something like:
termtitle Special Projects
After changing the title once, you must resource to change it again:
. ~/.bashrc
termtitle My new title
