Randall,
Most likely there is no wrapper script. This is an option of "vim" itself. In vim, "help title". Igor
Igor,
That explains why I could not find documentation for the "title / notitle" command when Thorsten mentioned it: I looked in the man and info documentation.
However, in my Cygwin Vim I cannot get a title to show even when I ":set titlestring=something" and ":set title". I tried suspending and resuming Vim, too, but still no title. Vim --version" does indicate that it was configured for "+title," so I'm uncertain what I'm doing wrong that keeps me from getting a title. Maybe it's being displaced through time and space to Anoop's system.
