+# Shellscript: xtitle - set title on xterm window
+# Author     : Heiner Steven <heiner.steven@odn.de>
+# Requires   : xprop
+# Category   : Desktop
+# Date       : 1995-03-17
+# SCCS-Id.   : @(#) xtitle     1.8 04/02/18
+##########################################################################
+# Notes
+#    o Thanks to Des Herriott (des@corp.netcom.net.uk) for
+#      the way to get a title using "xprop"
+#
+# Example
+#    o Get the old window title, set the new title to "New Title"
+#          OldTitle=`xtitle -g w -w "New Title"`
+#
+# Changes
+# 1995-06-01 hs        Separate settings for title and icon (0.2)
+# 1996-03-04 hs        Determine how to echo without newline (0.3)
+# 1996-10-01 hs        Get a window title, syntax changed (0.4)
+# 1999-10-27 hs        Use "getopts" to preserve whitespace in arguments (1.4)
+# 2002-04-09 hs        Added "Requires" header field (1.6)
