        case gettitle:
          {
            int n = strlen (my_title_buf);
            if (*src < ' ' || *src >= '\177')
              {
                if (*src == '\007' && state_ == gettitle)
                  {
                    if (old_title)
                      strcpy (old_title, my_title_buf);
                    set_console_title (my_title_buf);
                  }
                state_ = normal;
              }
            else if (n < TITLESIZE)
              {
                my_title_buf[n++] = *src;
                my_title_buf[n] = '\0';
              }
            src++;
