JDoors Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 It'd have to be a utility running constantly in the background, intercepting internal Windows messages, and altering every program on-the-fly. That'd be a dangerously powerful program, especially considering a large number of applications do not adhere to the proper Windows protocols (programmers often try to do things "better"). That utility might intercept the title bar text, try to change it to what you've specified, but the program doesn't use the proper protocols and you'd get a crash instead. I recall exactly that type of utility from back in the 3.x days and it didn't catch on then, partly for the reason stated above. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fubz Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 www.autohotkey.comYou may need some kind of programming knowledge. What this does is make really simple to really advance scripts fairly easily. I use it all the time for tasks. It has a function you are looking for "WinSetTitle"If you feel you are up to it, you can give it a try, the forums there are very helpful too if you need the asssitance.
