Answer 1

Here's my solution using JNA:

import com.sun.jna.Library;
import com.sun.jna.Native;
import com.sun.jna.Platform;

public class SetTitle {

    public interface CLibrary extends Library {
        CLibrary INSTANCE = (CLibrary)
            Native.loadLibrary((Platform.isWindows() ? "kernel32" : "c"),
                               CLibrary.class);

        boolean SetConsoleTitleA(String title);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        CLibrary.INSTANCE.SetConsoleTitleA("Testing 123");
        System.exit(0);
    }
}
