In general, applications neither know about, nor have any direct
influence over the title bar.  This is a window manager function.  (The
nifty packages which change the title bar to the current buffer name,
etc, do so by setting a so-called "window manager hint" which the window
manager may or may not honor.)  So therefore, if you wish to eliminate
the title bar on the minibuffer, you must do so via the window manager. 
Some window managers allow this and some don't.  For instance, in twm
(or tvtwm) use:

	NoTitle { "Minibuffer" }

For other window managers, check the appropriate man page or docs.

Good luck!
