: as Jeffrey notes, kermit recognizes the standard form of this:

I took Jeffrey's note:
OSC 0 ; <title> ST
and tried to make sense of what needed to be sent.
The closest I came was an ASCII chart, which almost agreed with
T.E.Dickey's note, except that Jeffrey's seems to be eight bit,
T.E.Dickey's seems to be seven bit mask of the same characters.
so, T.E. has the same line as what I started with, except that his ends
with ^[\, where mine ends with ^G.
I can't parse T.E's line. echo hangs waiting for the escape sequence to
finish. If I manually key in ESC-^G, I get the text on my Xterm title bar.
I think the ^[\ resembles what the ASCII chart says should be sent,
but I think either the shell or echo is interpreting it as \" escaping the
closing quote. I've sprinkled some extra \ in with no effect, and I still
have no reference to the X3.64 to decipher Jeffrey's string.
