HOWTO naming frames?

HOWTO naming frames?

[giglio robbo' d'acciaio]

All my Emacs frames are named emacs21@<mydomain>. Is it possible to rename them
in order to accord with the frame's content, i.e. "Gnus", <filename> and so on?

Thanks in advance.

C-h v frame-title-format

frame-title-format is a variable defined in `C source code'.
Its value is "emacs:%b"


Documentation:
Template for displaying the title bar of visible frames.
(Assuming the window manager supports this feature.)

This variable has the same structure as `mode-line-format', except that
the %c and %l constructs are ignored.  It is used only on frames for
which no explicit name has been set (see `modify-frame-parameters').
