But let's say I create a program object and call it "OS/2 Big Window"

the name of the executable file that I'm running. Is there some way
to create a program object that will start a VIO command prompt in a
non-default size window while retaining the ability to have the
titlebar updated with the name of the executable file?

Give the program object an empty title.

I'm surprised that the Properties notebook didn't complain about the
lack of a title, but it works! Just one problem: I have my Desktop
View tab set to "Invisible" for the Icon display, relying on just the
text. No title, no text, and the program object really becomes
invisible!
