    I am using a system that has xdm run from the rc scripts...when I
    log in on my terminal, how can I set the environment to put up a
    title with the window that I start.  This is automatic with xstart
    & mwm, but not with xdm & uwm.  Any ideas?
     
The titles you see on your windows are generated by the window
manager, in your case mwm.  uwm does not put titles on client
windows.  xstart and xdm have nothing to do with it.  So use the
window manager that gives you the look you want.
