Hello, I would like to know if it's possible to change how Kitty displays window titles. By default, when running a program, the window title is set to the alias of whatever command launched the process. I don't like this because I use very short aliases that make switching windows confusing. For example, when using nvim, I use the alias v, and I can't find the nvim session in my window manager with the correct directory as I would with alacritty. I would like to know if there is a way to change the window title to the window displaying the full binary name and path of execution. This would make a lot more sense and avoid some headaches.
I have tried using the following syntax recommended to me in my configuration file, which doesn't work.
