Hello,
I'd expect
window -hide rc -c 'label a_name; tail -f some_file'
would create a new hidden window (and so it does), run the tail
command (and so it does) and set the name for the hidden window to
a_name.
The last thing seems to not happen (at least from the viewpoint of
using the button-3 menu in rio --- I only see an empty field, i. e.
without any name).
Can anyone tell me what's wrong?
Thanks

rc -c only runs the commands given and then terminates. When all the
processes given to window terminates, the window closes. That's what's
happening to you. Try this:
window -hide 'label a_name; tail -f some_file; rc'
