Renaming window titles #430

Open Fan-iX opened 1 year ago

Fan-iX commented 1 year ago

I can change the title of a terminal window by setting the xterm title using echo -ne "\e]0;some title\007", so that I can distinguish between different terminal windows. Is it possible to rename (preferably edit) other windows like Tile Manager? Now all tiling windows are shown as "Tiling Window Manager" so that I cannot distinguish them clearly before I activate them.

Indeed, we need to add the ability to edit window titles in the list of windows in the taskbar or in the window itself.

I implemented renaming the tile manager title using the window menu button. By clicking on this button, the window title changes using the clipboard:
