I want it to be easily accessible to change the title on the fly.

That is exactly how I want it.  It is ment to change the current title
of that window so that one can tell one terminal window from another. 
If it chaged all the terminal for all sessions it would default the
purpose.

This is the first time I did this.  Point me in the right direction.  

If I don't use i as a pointer, and update the documentation in the
appropriate places will you accept it.  I personally thing being able to
change window titles on the fly without much hassle is a long awaited
feature for terminal windows and could help a lot of people out.
