For *nix terminals, it prints the appropriate escape sequences to set the terminal or tab title based on the value of \f(CW$ENV{TERM}\fR. On Windows, it uses Win32::Console to set the title directly. .PP Currently, changing the titlebar is supported in these terminals: .IP "\(bu" 4 xterm .IP "\(bu" 4 rxvt .IP "\(bu" 4 screen .IP "\(bu" 4 iTerm2.app .IP "\(bu" 4 Win32 console .PP The terminals that support changing the tab title include: .IP "\(bu" 4 iTerm2.app .SH "USAGE" .IX Header "USAGE" .SS "set_titlebar" .IX Subsection "set_titlebar" .Vb 1 \& set_titlebar( $title, @optional_text ); .Ve .PP Sets the titlebar to \f(CW$title\fR or clears the titlebar if \f(CW$title\fR is undefined. .PP On terminals that require printing escape codes to the terminal, a newline character is also printed to the terminal. If \f(CW @optional_text \fR is given, it will be printed to the terminal prior to the newline. Thus, to keep terminal output cleaner, use \f(CW\*(C`set_titlebar()\*(C'\fR in place of a \f(CW\*(C`print()\*(C'\fR statement to set the titlebar and print at the same time. .PP If the terminal is not supported, set_titlebar silently continues, printing \&\f(CW@optional_text\fR if any. .SS "set_tab_title" .IX Subsection "set_tab_title" .Vb 1 \& set_tab_title( $title, @optional_text ); .Ve .PP Has the exact same semantics as the \*(L"set_titlebar\*(R" but changes the tab title. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" .IP "\(bu" 4 Win32::Console .IP "\(bu" 4 .SH "SUPPORT" .IX Header "SUPPORT" .SS "Bugs / Feature Requests" .IX Subsection "Bugs / Feature Requests" Please report any bugs or feature requests through the issue tracker at .
