Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: RE: [Ethereal-dev] show hostname in window title - feature/patch submission

["Preston, Gabriel" <GPreston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is similar to the feature I had asked about and eventually coded  a
while back to be able to specify custom window titles in Ethereal to help
differentiate between multiple instances of Ethereal running on the same
desktop.

My method for this though was to provide a command-line flag that could be
passed with a custom title that would appear in the window title.  I had
chosen the "-C <title>" flag, the C being for 'Custom Title.'  I have this
working in 0.10.7, but there is no GUI interface for providing the title.
It is strictly command-line.

In short though, I would like to see this ability to have customized window
titles also added.  Preferably an entirely user-specified title over just a
hostname though.  Nathan, if you'd like to maybe see the changes I made and
possibly integrate them into your patch so we could provide both options to
the user, please contact me.
