I was hoping that we could get HTML working in the window title bar, for example if I want to use the character name format to output © I'd do ©

Is this already possible? If so, sorry that I've missed it and how can I do this.

If this isn't already possible then can it be implemented?, I don't see any lack of benefit, so I don't know anything which could get in the way other than it being difficult to implement.

Falacy	Hold alt and press 0169 on the numpad, or just copy and paste the symbol in.

Yeah, thanks but I already knew this method (thanks anyway however), currently I have a setup which downloads file from another computer (server) and the file is written in XML, I want to display a certain element of the XML file in the title bar and this element may at times contain HTML.

It's not a major feature and it's probably not useful, but it wouldn't hurt to implement.

Nadrew	You can always use a string replacement function to replace the HTML entity for it with the actual symbol character.

Nadrew	I don't see the need to invest time in something that's easily done already.
