When I run Alpine in a Gnome terminal, it puts "alpine" in the window's

This does not happen for me on Ubuntu (25-04/plucky).
Which distro are you using ?
It may not actually be alpine, but a wrapper script which calls the
alpine executable, in which case you may be able to disable this or
change the string.
It turns out that I sometimes run alpine on different hosts at the
same time. The window header doesn't allow me to tell which alpine is in
which window.
Is there a way to customize what Alpine sets the window header to?
I searched for "alpine" in the config screen and none of the matches
seemed to be for window headers.
