As raster said, it is up to the application to name itself. In the case of urxvt you will have to launch urxvt with a unique name and then remember the name in E remember dialog. You can launch urxvt with unique name by passing in a parameter to the -name option: urxvt -name 'topleft' urxvt -name 'bottomright' etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
