Where did it go ?
Can't find it anywhere...
What is the BM equivalent ?

Thank's !
I hope they implement a command later but this will do fine for now, :)

I posted code in the module tweaks section that implements a SetAppTitle command, I'm not sure how bug free it is, but it works fine for me so far.

Even better Perturbatio, but like you say yourself, sync will probably kill it (both versions).
But this is only important for final releases and Mark asked for no exe-publishing yet.
Still glad you guys found a way to do this :)

Any way to do this on Macs?

Assuming OSX uses the XLib, then I suspect that XStoreName will be the answer, I really need to sort my system out and install linux so I can test it there. (either that or someone else with linux could test it in the meantime?).

*EDIT*

at a guess, you would do the following:
use the same stuff in the bmx source, but update it to reflect the changes in the conditionals
Then make some changes to the C source (for linux, blitzgl.linux.c)
below:

	window=XCreateWindow(
		display,
		RootWindow(display,screen),
		0,
		0,
		width,height,
		0,
		vizinfo->depth,
		InputOutput,
		vizinfo->visual,
		CWBorderPixel|CWColormap|CWEventMask|CWOverrideRedirect,
		&swa
	);

put something like:

XStoreName(display,window,appTitle);
