Is it possible to pass the desired name of a GNUemacs window to GNUemacs so that when iconfied the icon has that name instead of gnuemacs @ hostname? I would like to name the icons with the name of their current buffer when iconified, or just the name of the file that was passed to gnuemacs on the command-line on startup. Can anyone offer any help? Thanks, John Danner Tandem Computers, Inc. cracker@portia.stanford.edu | pacbell!tandem!wizard!john@decwrl.dec.com

Use a command-line argument of -wn WindowName to set the window name, and -in IconName to set the icon name. This applies to 18.52, and probably some slightly earlier versions as well. Look in src/x11term.c for more (undocumented) command-line options; the man page needs a little updating. -- bd
