Re: Text on toolbar buttons

My guess would be that this is an issue with RH9's emacs configuration
and not gnome. I suspect emacs is setting it's own title and that gnome
is just using what it gets from emacs.

A cursory googling lead me to this page:
http://ftp.us.xemacs.org/ftp/pub/xemacs/Attic/faq/HTML/XEmacs-faq_15.html
which suggests to me that you'll want to add a line like this to your
.emacs file:
(setq frame-title-format "%f")

That page also suggests
(setq frame-title-format
  '("%S: " (buffer-file-name "%f" (dired-directory dired-directory "%b"))))
