Works for me.

They are.

$CWD is the folder containing the .tm_properties file.

It is useful to set e.g. TM_MAKE_FILE to "$CWD/Makefile" or projectDirectory. But this .tm_properties file should then be copied to each of your projects.

This is what I use for my projects:

    windowTitle = "$TM_DISPLAYNAME — ${CWD/^.*\///}"

But this needs to be set for each project’s .tm_properties file (can’t be set globally).
