ABSTRACT:
A system and method for renaming a title of a window that has been created and is currently displayed on a computer screen. When a user wants to rename a window's title, the user first brings the window into focus; that is, he makes the desired window the active window. The user then presses a hot-key, or key combination. Upon receiving the hot-key, the present invention displays a pop-up window prompting the user for a new window title. After entering the text for the new window title, the present invention changes the title of the active window to the new title that the user entered. In addition, the present invention ensures that the new title is reflected in a task list of executing applications.
