Subcommand of [wm] to query or set the title of a toplevel window. For editor-like apps, it is convenient to put the current file name into the title bar: wm title $w $filename or, combined with the app name (Windows look & feel): wm title $w "$filename - $appname" You can even retrieve the filename from there with [regexp], avoiding a [global] variable: regexp "(.+) - $appname" [wm title $w] -> filename ;# RS Windows 2000 tolerates Unicodes (e.g. Chinese characters) in the title bar, but (at least at 8.3.4) ''wm title'' converts the title to system encoding, so everything exotic mostly ends up as question marks.
