Is there an escape sequence that you can feed to an xterm to make it set
the title?  In looking through the source I found where there is a case
switch that looks to be something like that, something like Esc-T, but
it is never used that I can tell.

If this isn't possible, is there any other easy way to change the title
of a window, hopefully from a shell script or something close.  I don't
mind if it is a program that has to be run.
