This statement is useful to change the program window title. The new title set will become active immediately if the program already runs in windowed mode, otherwise will become the new title for any window produced by subsequent calls to the Screen (Graphics) statement. If this function is not called before setting a new windowed mode via Screen (Graphics), the program window will use the executable file name (without the extension) as title by default.
This command has no effect in consoles.
