Thanks.  Perl seemed like the easiest way to skip leading switches, 
although the "--" (no more switches) doesn't work:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

for ( @ARGV ) {
   next if /^\-/;
   system("title $_");
   system("/usr/bin/nano @ARGV");
   system("title xterm");
   exit;
}
exec '/usr/bin/nano';

A few extra forks, oh well.

It would be nice if I could restore the window name back to what it was.
I know I can find the current title with xprop and a mouse click.  Any 
way to find if the program is running in a window and if so what the 
current WM_NAME is (without having to click the mouse?).

In other words, how can my perl script check if there's a name and what 
it is currently set as?
