Thanks!  I appreciate knowing a quick workaround to get my
problem solved, by compiling 8 different versions of the
executable, which suits me fine at the moment. 

But to facilitate everyday use by sane people 8-], I suggest
we change the title bar to automatically say 
	filename: MagicPoint
with the first part of filename.mgp becoming part of
the TitleBar, as well as the leading text on the minimized icon
(so "MagicPoint" will be the part that gets truncated, if anything).

FWIW, I'd also like to have an option to have the window start
up as an icon.
