Here's something I wrote to accomplish similar... I am always running 10 xterms at once, each on a different machine. I needed a way to change the titlebar without having to install a script or type a long line everytime. You add the program to your .wmx folder, select some text with the mouse, run it from the menu and choose a window. It will retitle the window to the current text selection..
