Can you give some example application where you need that? Do you use it
together with --last-arg for the window-title-applet?

That is correct, the log-applet uses popen(<hc>, "r") and getdelim(...,...,0,...), where

hc := herbstclient -0 -l -i '(focus_changed|window_title_changed)'

to retrieve the window title of the focused window.

Best,
