Very simple script that change the title of "directory index" pages (when you open a local directory of your hard disk in your web browser), so the title becomes "name-of-the-directory DIR full-path-of-the-directory". Prefixing the title with the name of the directory makes it easier to find the directory among several tabs.

Same thing is done for title-less documents, such as text files or HTML files without a "title" tag. The title is set to "name-of-the-file FILE full-path-of-the-file".

I looked for an extension or a Firefox setting to achieve this (because the default title "index of file:///disk/path/file" is useless in a tab), did not find anything; with a Userscript it was trivial to do.
