How to open a new window with a custom window title?

Greetings,
Is there a command line option that would open a new window with a custom window title?
Something similar to this?:
-new-window <window_title>
-no-new-window <window_title>
Then it can be considered for a new tab as well, like this?:
-new-tab <tab_title>
-no-new-tab <tab_title>
Thank you.

Currently I use
Code: Select all
nop:MYTITLE........................... mysearchstring
to give an individual tab title (also window title when just 1 tab), however the idea of individual tab labels was being considered.
There is though a general titling formula that was recently made available.
General tab titling formula see
viewtopic.php?p=65751#p65751
at "Everything 1.5.0.1372a adds support for customizing the tab title."
and Window titling see eg
viewtopic.php?t=11294

Thank you meteorquake,
I also thought about this "nop:" Search Function. But the problem with the "nop:" Search Function is:
Suppose, I started a new window with a title named "topic" using:
Code: Select all
Everything64.exe -new-window -search "nop:topic"
Then I opened a bookmark on that opened window then the title is ruined. Due to bookmark can change search text.
I also thought about the Window/Tab titling pages that you provided.
But they change title for all windows/tabs. I just want to temporarily change the title for only the window/tab that was opened by the command line.
I used, "/window_title_format=format" and "/tabs_title_format=format" but they change title for all windows/tabs.
