How can I change tab name in Sublime Text?

Question

Is it possible to change tab names for files with strange names? They can not be renamed on disk but it is difficult to keep up with mad file names in Sublime :D

Answer 1

In the ST console, enter view.set_name("My changed name"), replacing the content of the string with the name you want. You can also create a plugin to do this, again using the view#set_name api method.
