Set LISTERTITLE

Help & Support
1

Set LISTERTITLE includes support for "tokens" in the title string such as %N - name of the current (source) folder so I can specify, for example:

Set LISTERTITLE "[Aussie] - %N"

It would be nice if DOS variables could be added to the list of supported "tokens". Then I could specify..

Set LISTERTITLE "[%USERNAME%] - %N"

..to pick up the current user ID rather than have [Aussie] hard coded.

A script that implements the OnOpenLister event could parse the title string and update it accordingly.

That the sample script I pointed to already implements OnOpenLister, so it should be a good starting point.
