window titles in w, not updated with status right.

when i ssh into a server, the hostname in status right changes to server ip, but window titles in w keep the same.
and exit, the hostname in status right changes back to hostname.

Hello @dfang 👋

It really depends on your setup.

For instance, you can edit your ~/.tmux.conf.local copy and add set -gw allow-rename which will allow the running program to rename the window using terminal escape sequences.

Depending on how your shell is configured, this will allow to rename the window to the target hostname. It seems Oh My Zsh does that.

I apply this solution with Oh My Zsh and now windows titles are correctly set when ssh'ing remote hosts. Thanks for the suggestion!
