check this javascript file

/usr/share/cinnamon/applets/window-list@cinnamon.org/applet.js

you should be able to edit that. i'm gonna check myself if i can find it.

if (this.metaWindow.minimized) {
    title = "["+ title +"]";
} else if (this.metaWindow.tile_type == Meta.WindowTileType.TILED) {
    title = "|"+ title;
}
else if (this.metaWindow.tile_type == Meta.WindowTileType.SNAPPED) {
    title = "||"+ title;
}
