A little termcap reading shows that some older hadrware also has a set title
feature (with moderately different control sequences from xterm). lynx
couldtest hs to test for support and use ts fro instructions on how to do it.
>From the termcap man page
hs Has a status line
ds Disable status line
ts Move cursor to column %1 of status line
in xterm, and presumably others, sending <ts>Ritle<BEL> sets the staus line
(aka xterm title). You could cut ts off the beginning of ds and take the rest
as the end of the title string if you felt the need. Title setting code could
be as simple as
void set_title(const char *t)
{
char *ts;
if (tgetent("hs") && (td=tgetstr("ts", NULL))!=NULL)
{
tputs(ts);
fputs(t, stdout);
fputc('\007', stdout);
}
}
