To make it work with: 

    Terminal.app    (Mac OS X)
    Terminal.app    (NeXTstep)
    Stuart.app      (NeXTstep)

add the following to the case statement in your dot.zshrc 

- - - - 8< - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
vt100)
  if (( $+TERM_PROGRAM && $+TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION )) ||  # Terminal.app
     (( $+STUART ))                                     # Stuart.app
  then
      precmd()
      {
        writetitle
        print -Pn "\e]0;${TITLETEXT}\a"
      }

      preexec()
      {
        writeexectitle $1
        print -Pn '\e]0;'"${EXECTEXT1}"
        print -rn "${EXECTEXT2}"
        print -Pn '\a'
      }
  fi
;;
- - - - 8< - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -



Mac OS X and NeXTstep users will also need to add the following line
to dot.screenrc.

    termcapinfo vt100 'hs:ts=\E]0;:fs007:ds=\E]0;'

This termcapinfo line is probably wrong for everyone else, though.



PS: The NeXTstep stuff is hypothetical, because I don't have
    screen installed on my NeXT slab, and it only has an
    old zsh from 1994.

        [[ $VERSION = 2.5.02 ]]   # to be exact

    It doesn't know about %y (for putting the tty info in the
    title bar) and the preexec() function means nothing to it.

    (I tried to compile zsh-4.0.4 a while ago, but it didn't get
    very far using gcc 2.5.8....  However, it was a pleasant
    surprise when vim-6 compiled and worked.)
