Thread: Setting the console title

How do you set the title of the console window?

I have had a search but cannot find anything on it.

Thank you.

That depends on your platform.

I am working on Windows XP (with Bloodshed Dev-C++ if that is relevant)

SetConsoleTitle

you could try

Code:

system ("title This is the title");

but i wouldnt get in the habbit of using the "system" for anything

Here's how to do it using the Windows API:
