I appreciate that you're taking the Zen position on this, Chuck,
but wasn't the bottom line that there wasn't a Zen way to do
"change title"???

And I would put it more strongly than "seem to want", I'd say some
people "definitely *need*" a change-your-title function.

I am very dependent on change-title on my Suns at work, and am about
to start using it on my Amiga for consistency. A Zen way to do it would
be nice, but I ain't waiting for 1.4 or 1.5...I'll use self modifying
code if that's the only way to get what I need! Ah...fortunately that
doesn't seem to be needed here. :-)

"Pride, hell! Make it work!"
"Now *that's* Zen!"
