Hi,
Anyone know if it is possible to change the title of a WoW window? Right now all 5 instances are "World of Warcraft". It would be nice to make the title the name of the character so I can switch more easily.

HotKeyNet (http://hotkeynet.com) can do it. There is also a toggle command to help you switch.

Well without some other software you probably aren't going to be able to do it. It requires access to a windows API function, you have to target the current window/process and use system(TITLE, "MyNewTitleText"). HKN handles this quite nicely and can be run change titles and be closed. On the plus side it's currently free to use and very stable, and a very minimal hit on the resources.

maybe a dumb question, but as you say, you don'T want to use 'another' software, which one do you use now?
-I'm asking this, because I think the majority (like keyclone,IS, HKN) have this feature build in.
