Subject: Allow -title to be set in ~/.w3m/config.
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2009 19:36:42 +1000
Package: w3m
Version: 0.5.2-2.1
Severity: wishlist

w3m will set the terminal's title to the current page name if you
start w3m with the -title option.  This is really useful, so I want it
to be on all the time.  But I can't see any way to specify that in
~/.w3m/config.

Even if I put this in .profile:

    alias w3m='w3m -title'
    export PAGER='w3m -title' BROWSER='w3m -title'

...there are still be cases where scripts run w3m directly instead of
via $PAGER or $BROWSER.  Therefore, please allow -title to be turned
on forever by adding a setting in ~/.w3m/config.
