Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: Re: [ethereal-dev] Should the title bar give the name of the current capture file?

["Mark H. Wood" <mwood@xxxxxxxxx>]

I would indeed like to keep the program's name in the title text.  My
window manager (fvwm2) can do various useful things if you can identify
the window, but it's identified by the property that the wm uses to title
the window and icon.

The name of the current source of information would also be welcome.  On
Unix et al., the filename without path is probably a good compromise
between brevity and uniqueness.  If this is a live capture then how about
"[live]" or something to that effect?

So, all together, two fairly short tokens:  "Ethereal: somefile.name".  I
think this might work well with a number of window managers and should be
at least readable when chewed on by the Win32 shell.
