initial window title not set

[richard clarke]

in openbox, it comes up as "Unnamed Window" (in eg cinnamon, it's just blank)
setting the tab name via the menu sets it.
adding a new tab (initally doesn't set it) and switching tabs then sets title to the active tab ..
doing xprop on it(initial):
_OB_APP_TITLE(UTF8_STRING) = "Unnamed Window"
...
_NET_WM_VISIBLE_ICON_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "Unnamed Window"
_NET_WM_VISIBLE_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "Unnamed Window"
...
WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) =
_NET_WM_ICON_NAME(UTF8_STRING) =
WM_NAME(STRING) =
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) =

having same issue on sway-1.7 and wayfire-0.7.3

Having the same issue here in openbox 3.6. Sakura title bar shows "Unnamed Window".

As a workaround, adding to sakura.conf:
tab_default_title=
(without any value at all) makes sakura show "sakura" in the title bar as it should.

Could the issue be related in some way to https://code.launchpad.net/~ikenfin/sakura/q_267951/+merge/278939 ?

i noticed in arch based systems the title was being set to an inital prompt based one..
looking into it showed this: in bashrc:
```
case ${TERM} in
  xterm*|rxvt*|Eterm|aterm|kterm|gnome*)
    PROMPT_COMMAND=${PROMPT_COMMAND:+$PROMPT_COMMAND; }'printf "\033]0;%s@%s:%s\007" "${USER}" "${HOSTNAME%%.*}" "${PWD/#$HOME/\~}"'

    ;;
  screen*)
    PROMPT_COMMAND=${PROMPT_COMMAND:+$PROMPT_COMMAND; }'printf "\033_%s@%s:%s\033\\" "${USER}" "${HOSTNAME%%.*}" "${PWD/#$HOME/\~}"'
    ;;
esac
```
(the printf part can of course be adjusted to suit)
i guess PROMPT_COMMAND is something window managers can understand..
not sure about other shells eg. this doesn't work directly with zshrc

Window title command line option is back. Hope this solves all the issues.

looks good here:
initial title (without command option or sakura.conf) = "sakura"
naming tab udpates to new name
adding tabs: initially title stays "sakura", upon switching tabs title updates to 'Terminal 0' ..etc
using `$ sakura -t "whatever"` sets title name, and remains so regardless of adding and switching tabs, subsequent setting the of a tab name manually then uses the tab names dynamically.

only thing to do now would be to put reference to the "-t --title" option back in the --help info
