Description

**[Jurrian Fahner](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=jfahner)** opened **[MNG-7907](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7907?redirect=false)** and commented

In the mvnDebug script the window title is updated during the script.

It doesn't set back the changed window title back to the original window title.

But it is strange that only with the mvnDebug script the title is updated, it would be nice to have that also with other scripts as well. In this way we can monitor when the maven command is ended succesfully.

This issue currently only focuses on windows, this means the following default terminals will be supported:
* Windows Terminal
* Windows Powershell
* Command Prompt

I have not yet formed an idea on what should be set to as an title, but that is open for brainstorm.

Research direction

Start with the mvnDebug script and compare how the other Maven scripts handle terminal window titles in Windows Terminal, Windows PowerShell, and Command Prompt. Clarify the title format and restoration behavior first; done means the supported scripts show a useful completion state and restore the original title where required.
