Eu tive exatamente esse mesmo problema.
Então eu escrevi um script de shell que liguei a uma tecla de atalho.
Quando eu clico na tecla de atalho, ele obtém o ID da janela da janela atualmente ativa (aquela que tem foco).
Em seguida, ele fornece uma caixa de diálogo pop-up onde você insere o título que deseja que a janela tenha.
Em seguida, toda vez que a janela mudar de nome, ela será alterada novamente para o título desejado.
Para usar o script, você precisa:
-
o shell
fish
(Eu escrevi em peixe em vez de bater porque bash me dá uma dor de cabeça) -
kdialog -
alguma maneira de ligar o script a uma tecla de atalho
(Eu usoxbindkeys, pq tudo que eu tive que fazer para que funcionasse foi adicionar:
"[PATH TO SCRIPT]/[NAME OF SCRIPT]"
Mod4 + t
(isto é, tecla da janela + t)
para meu /home/o1/.xbindkeysrc )
Graças a esse cara , que me deu a informação sobre as coisas mágicas do xprop.
(Como, um ano atrás, e então eu nunca cheguei a escrever o roteiro até hoje. xD)
P.S. Se algum novato encontrar essa resposta e não souber como usá-la, basta perguntar-me e eu irei te guiar por ela. ^^
EDIT: Eu atualizei para que você possa usá-lo a partir da linha de comando com as opções -t para title_i_want e -w para window_id .
Aqui está o script:
#!/usr/local/bin/fish
# this block is so you can use it from the command line with -t and -w
if test "$argv" != "" -a (math (count $argv)%2 == 0)
for i in (seq 1 (count $argv))
if test $argv[$i] = '-t'
set title_i_want $argv[(math 1 + $i)]
else if test $argv[$i] = '-w'
set window_id $argv[(math 1 + $i)]
end
end
if not test $window_id
echo "YOU DIDN'T ENTER A 'window_id' WITH '-w',
SO MAKE SURE THE WINDOW YOU WANT HAS FOCUS
TWO SECONDS FROM NOW!"
sleep 2
end
end
# get the id of the currently focused window
if not test $window_id
set window_id (xprop -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW | grep -P -o "0x\w+")
end
# get the title to force on that window
if not test $title_i_want
set title_i_want (kdialog --title "entitled" --inputbox "type the title you want and hit enter.
to stop renaming,
just enter nothing and hit esc")
end
# this bit is needed for a kludge that allows window renaming
set has_renamed_before "FALSE"
set interrupt_message "WAIT WAIT I WANT A TURN BLOO BLOO BLEE BLUH BLOO" # hopefully i never want to actually use that as a title xD
xprop -f _NET_WM_NAME 8u -set _NET_WM_NAME $interrupt_message -id $window_id
# take the output of xprop
# pipe it into a while loop
# everytime it outputs a new line
# stuff it into a variable named "current_title"
xprop -spy _NET_WM_NAME -id $window_id | while read current_title
# cut off extraneous not-the-title bits of that string
set current_title (echo $current_title | grep -P -o '(?<=_NET_WM_NAME\(UTF8_STRING\) = ").*(?="\z)')
# if the current title is the interrupt message
# AND
# this script has renamed the window at least once before
# then we wanna let the new name take over
if test $current_title = $interrupt_message -a $has_renamed_before = "TRUE"
exit
# if title_i_want is an empty string, exit
else if test $title_i_want = ""
xprop -f _NET_WM_NAME 8u -set _NET_WM_NAME "WIDNOW WILL START RENAMING ITSELF AS NORMAL" -id $window_id
exit
# otherwise just change the title to what i want
else if test $current_title != $title_i_want
xprop -f _NET_WM_NAME 8u -set _NET_WM_NAME "$title_i_want" -id $window_id
set has_renamed_before "TRUE"
end
end
