Hi,
I'm trying to set the title of the console window (CMD.EXE) in Windows.
I want it set to the basename of the current directory and it should
stay after the script has finished.
Now, the console title is easily set with the DOS-command 'title
NewTitle'. But I'd like to do this from a Python

Any ideas?
I don't think you can do that.
Whenever you start an application from the command prompt
Hmm.
From an interactive interpreter this works for me.
import os
os.system('title Jay')
but the title returns to its previous value when I Ctrl-Z out of the
process.
If I save this as a file and run it, it seems to work without spawning
a new window but resets it the title after the program
Whenever you start an application from the command prompt the title
is
modified by appending a dash and the name of the program you started.
When
the application terminates the title is reset (to remove the name of
the
running program). So any change to the title will only last until the
next

having many console windows open, and to make it easier to switch
between them, I like to name them. Todays solution is rather tedious
- a batch file that calls a python script that isolates the directory
name and stores it
Cool. Let me know if you want a copy of p.py (in all of it's
hard-coded glory).
I can easily put it under Public Domain and you can copy whatever you
want out of it.
