Thanks, Lei, your code works. And I has extended it to a lisp codesnnipet,
which is exactly what I want.
I post it here, in case others need it.
Notice: There is an enhancement here, which is replacing setq with local
variables.
I tried to do this, but has failed, due to my poor lisp.
Since this is a minor issue for me, so I keep lazy here. ^-^
;; -------------------------- separator --------------------------
(setq frame-title-format
'(:eval (concat "Ask 5 why, Denny! -- " (buffer-name) " -- "
(progn
(if buffer-file-name
(setq buffer_name_str buffer-file-name)
(setq buffer_name_str ""))
(if (< (length buffer_name_str) 50)
buffer_name_str
(concat (substring buffer_name_str 0 20) "..."
(substring buffer_name_str
(- (length buffer_name_str) 30)
(length buffer_name_str))
))))))
;; -------------------------- separator --------------------------
Regards,
Denny
