I have been perusing one of my Windows XP Books and came across an item I wanted
to pass on in case those using this OS aren't aware of this batch command.
If you or your clients are running in a window environment or may sometimes run
in a window environment, if you add the command TITLE xxxxx, that is the name
that will appear as the name that will appear in the title bar.
Under normal circumstances, when fp starts from a batch file, p.exe is
displayed. To replace it with your application name or in my case, my client's
name, I modified the startup batch file as follows:
@echo off
rem This File created wald-tex
title Wald-Tex
set PFDSK=TW
set PFDATA=W:
set PFPROG=T:
set PFDIR=\waldtex
set PFMENU=W:\waldtex\menus
set PFGLOB=
set PFCONFIG=
set PATH=%PFPROG%\fp;%path%
%pfprog%\fp\p.exe
Now when I start his programs, Wald-Tex appears in on the title bar. As I
maintain copies of my clients apps on my system, this will allow me to insure
whose app I am working with.
