I take it this is an example of what you want to see....

I'd have to dig into the documentation to see which parameter shows the
node number.  I'm sure it is burried some place.  On the other hand, if the
WFC status bar is a line in the main English.MAD file, I believe that file
doesn't allow parameters to be added.  You will need to find a way to
override with appropriate MECCA or other scripting.

The way I get node numbers in the command window titles is with how I start
up the batch file with each node.  

Take care....
