Re: [O] [PATCH] Option for clock and timer to be displayed in frame-title

Hi!

> frame-title-format ...) on Windows emacs normally?  

Just to let you know, I am using Windows Emacs 23.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.2.3790)

I tried:

  (setq-frame-title-format "This is a test.")

in the *scratch* window and got:

  Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function setq-frame-title-format)
  (setq-frame-title-format "This is a test.")
  eval((setq-frame-title-format "This is a test."))
  eval-last-sexp-1(t)
  eval-last-sexp(t)
  eval-print-last-sexp()
  call-interactively(eval-print-last-sexp nil nil)

I'm a little behind the current Emacs, but not that much. However, I have 
noticed other frame and window manipulation functions that are available on 
UNIX, but not Windows.

Hope this helps!
