The frame indentification has disappeared from the mode-line in the latest
Emacs.  This is emacs -nw.

Inspection shows the value of mode-line-frame-identification = ("  ") 

I have put this work-around in my .emacs file:
(unless window-system (setq mode-line-frame-identification '("-%F ")))

So, I think that's what you need to know . .  exactly which variable
has a wrong value and what it is.

Oh, I'm on OS X 10.4.  There!  I think that's everything.

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list
and the gnu.emacs.bug news group, and at http://debbugs.gnu.org.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':



If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:

term/ns-win.el contains:

  ;; Don't show the frame name; that's redundant with Nextstep.
  (setq-default mode-line-frame-identification '("  "))

so this is intentional.
Whether it makes sense is another matter.

Well, you know what my opinion would be . . .

I remember in the old days, when we had a bug that was the result of
thought, rather than just a stupid slip, we called it a "logic error".
Maybe it would help to call it that.

OK, I removed the setting from ns-win.el (it made no sense to me).
Thanks for the report.

Well, it makes sense as long as you're using a windowing system.
I get in trouble because I use emacs -nw, so all frames appear in 
one "window".  Thus, I need a frame ID to tell me which one I'm
looking at.

You might want to set it based on whether you're windowing. (See
code below.)

Andrew

That's the default setting does, so it makes no sense for ns-win to mess
with it.
