John,
I once wrote a wee program much as you describe.
It simply looked every minute, and logged the window title.
So I can answer your first question anyway:
var s:String;
P:array[0..256] of Char;
h:THandle;
i:Integer;
begin
GetWindowText(GetForeGroundWindow,p,256);
s := p;
Regards,
Paul.

I have a sort of similar question - I am interested to write a
background
program that every so often wakes and finds what Window has got focus,
and
Ideally its title-bar. This would enable me to record a little log as
an
aid for time-recording.
How easy is it in Delphi to:
1 - Find the details of the Window that has focus and the title bar or
any
distinguishing features.
2 - to check how long since any keyboard input or Window focus change?
(i.e. how long since the user has done anything)
(less important).
