Ah, thanks I had no idea that -nohostintitle existed. I did a lot of
searching online first before submitting the question so I should have
stumbled across that at some point. As soon as I get back to that
machine I'll add the option.
I also appreciate the heuristic tweak. A couple other machines will
benefit from it especially where the windows are very narrow.
