It's not possible to set (in FVWM terms) the visible_name of the window, no. If you're lucky, some applications might respond to: xprop -set WM_NAME some_new_title But it likely won't work for most of the apps you're referring to (they'd likely alread have provided a -T or -title option anyway), and note that not application have to respond to resetting WM_NAME anyway. -- Thomas Adam -- "Deep in my heart I wish I was wrong.
