I've been interested in changing the titles of some windows that don't set a useful name, I thought some other users might find it interesting...
It probably won't work on all windows, but it at least the fixed the ones I needed to change :) AddToFunc StartFunction I FvwmEvent FvwmEvent-Title *FvwmEvent-Title: add_window SetTitleFunc *FvwmEvent-Title: property_change SetTitleFunc DestroyFunc SetTitleFormat AddToFunc SetTitleFormat I AddToFunc SetTitleFunc I ThisWindow ($0) PipeRead \ 'echo "Exec xprop -id $[w.id] -set WM_NAME \'$1\'" | sed \ -e "s#%t#$[w.name]#g" \ -e "s#%i#$[w.iconname]#g" \ -e "s#%I#$[w.id]#g" \ -e "s#%c#$[w.class]#g" \ -e "s#%w#$[w.width]#g" \ -e "s#%h#$[w.height]#g"' SetTitleFormat XTerm "This is an %c, it is %wx%h, id: %I" SetTitleFormat XCalc "1+1=2" Which set's the title on xterm's to something like "This is an XTerm, it is 644x340, id: 0x3400003" It could easily be adopted to set iconname on iconify or similar if required :) -- ------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | finger me for my gpg key. ------------------------------------------------------- -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
