However when you open another frame (C-x 5 b), the tiles of the "windows" change to the buffer name (precisely: to the name of the active window when there are multiple windows in the frame). I think it would be both, consistent and helpful if Emacs would use "window" title "Emacs@host.domain.org X" in all cases, where X could be either the name of the active window in the frame, or a (possibly abbreviated) list of windows being displayed in that frame. Note: I'm using "window" in double-quotes when I talk about the window manager's windows (like X11 windows), not about Emacs windows (that are parts of a frame).

It would be more consistent -- but I think the idea here is that if you just have one frame, then it's useful for that frame to be named something with "emacs" in the name. If you have several frames, then that's not useful any more, so it switches to using buffer names as the frame title instead. So this is working as intended, so I'm closing this bug report. As Andreas said, `frame-title-format' can be used to customise this to your liking. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Mon Jun 21 09:07:35 2021 Received: (at control) by debbugs.gnu.org; 21 Jun 2021 13:07:35 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:35797 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1lvJeJ-0001JB-0J for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Mon, 21 Jun 2021 09:07:35 -0400 Received: from quimby.gnus.org ([95.216.78.240]:52224) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1lvJeG-0001Iv-QW for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Mon, 21 Jun 2021 09:07:34 -0400 DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; q=dns/txt; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gnus.org; s=20200322; h=Subject:From:To:Message-Id:Date:Sender:Reply-To:Cc: MIME-Version:Content-Type:Content-Transfer-Encoding:Content-ID: Content-Description:Resent-Date:Resent-From:Resent-Sender:Resent-To:Resent-Cc :Resent-Message-ID:In-Reply-To:References:List-Id:List-Help:List-Unsubscribe: List-Subscribe:List-Post:List-Owner:List-Archive; bh=pSmbMODyUFTG3Ikkk48851802Rl2dVUgdCXLf6CUI6c=; b=BrR9YvjVopUf9UFW222WT6eVIB GSLaqhDH4qfcoWa42FveXMqazxHru8tT/ezn2LYJDZSvI2utsBs0RH6/TB70o9KMkJDJOeHX/6bkr 9wFsWXdXb1y/8IrMQsopUT7P+/baKfeaFdQZui3/i+vXy1Ilrbuc6TA5sihwi9oUS0Ls=; Received: from cm-84.212.220.105.getinternet.no ([84.212.220.105] helo=elva) by quimby.gnus.org with esmtpsa (TLS1.3:ECDHE_RSA_AES_256_GCM_SHA384:256) (Exim 4.92) (envelope-from ) id 1lvJe5-0004Ib-JO for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Mon, 21 Jun 2021 15:07:27 +0200 Date: Mon, 21 Jun 2021 15:07:21 +0200 Message-Id: <87o8bzs6wm.fsf@gnus.org> To: control@debbugs.gnu.org From: Lars Ingebrigtsen Subject: control message for bug #49138 X-Spam-Report: Spam detection software, running on the system "quimby.gnus.org", has NOT identified this incoming email as spam.
