I'm referring to the NAME parameter of the alist variable, which sets the frame NAME that appears by default in the mode-line, and which is used by function `select-frame-by-name'. I'm not sure what you mean by frame title. > In general, a frame's name is Emacs's internal business, and is rarely > if ever exposed to the user. About the only exception I know of is TTY > frames. I'd be interested to know why you care about a frame's name, > i.e. what is your use case. I'm using C-x 5 b (M-x select-frame-by-name) to switch between frames and in my case, I would like the names to be more informative than just Fnn. In a more general sense, if emacs is offering the NAME parameter, it should assume the parameter will be used, and currently emacs isn't handling its use well. =2D- hkp://keys.gnupg.net CA45 09B5 5351 7C11 A9D1 7286 0036 9E45 1595 8BC0
