The thread title is VERY misleading - cat WILL act correctly on newline chars!

dtwsmsetworkspacetitle
DtWsmSetWorkspaceTitle(API) DtWsmSetWorkspaceTitle(API)
NAME
DtWsmSetWorkspaceTitle -- set workspace title
SYNOPSIS
#include <Dt/Wsm.h>
int DtWsmSetWorkspaceTitle(
Widget widget,
Atom workspace,
char *title);
DESCRIPTION
The DtWsmSetWorkspaceTitle() function works with the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), and changes a specific workspace's title. Applications
can use this function to implement an interface to the workspace manager.
If the DtWsmSetWorkspaceTitle() function is not successful, the most likely reason for failure is that the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1),
is not running. The DtWsmSetWorkspaceTitle() function requires a widget. A gadget (or unrealized widget) is not acceptable for the widget
argument.
DtWsmSetWorkspaceTitle() sends a message to the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), to set the title. If the workspace name is not valid, no
action is taken and the workspace manager reports no error.
ARGUMENTS
widget A realized widget on the screen of interest
workspace The name of the workspace (in X atom form) where the title should be set
title The new title
RETURN VALUE
The function returns Success (0) when it succeeds, and non-zero upon failure. Note that these are not the same values that _DtWsmSet-
WorkspaceTitle returns.
