I can get something like this here easily by opening two konqueror windows
and pointing them to the same directory (see screenshot). However, the
properties of the DesktopWindow objects look like this:

  $ ./konqueror-windows.gbs3
  Name: var - Konqueror   VisibleName: var - Konqueror
  Name: var - Konqueror   VisibleName:

So, apparently this can happen, too.

Tobi

Use "gb.desktop"

Public Sub Main()
  Dim w As DesktopWindow

  For Each w In Desktop.Windows
    If w.Name Not Like "*konqueror*" Then Continue
    Print "Name:";; w.Name, "VisibleName:";; w.VisibleName
  Next
End
