Re: [Oorexx-devel] Windows commands change console window title

[René Jansen]

I have no problem in seeing it go. Not that I run a lot of windows (but that 
will change now we have the portable version).

I second the vote to abolish the title bar showing the commands.

I am thankful,

I have found this a nuisance in the past, sometimes revealing passwords to
users on net use commands.  Glad to see it go!

[Oorexx-devel] Windows commands change console window title

[Erich Steinböck]

On Windows, our default command handler changes the console window title to
"path-to-cmd\cmd.exe /c executing-command" and after the command finishes,
reverts it to what it was before.

Is there a good reason we're doing this? Windows batch files don't do it,
and most commands won't run long enough for a user to actually be able to
read the new title.

I intend to make the new SYSTEM and PATH command environments skip this
title change.

Do we want to keep the console title changing for commands running in our
existing environments CMD and "" ?
