Awesome!  Thanks!  If anyone cares or wants to see it, here is my
current prompt.
[...]
if [[ $TERM == linux ]]; then
else
    precmd () { print -Pn "\e]0;%m: %~\a" }
fi


It doesn't show the username, because it usually doesn't matter to me
what user I am logged into (it's just a user or root) so I don't show
that.  Also the last part which will put the current directory in the
title of an xterm doesn't work if you are in a screen session.

if [[ $TERM == screen]; then
   function precmd() {
     print -Pn "\033]0;S $TTY:t{%100<...<%~%<<}\007"
   }
elsif etc

personally i use a case $TERM in ... screen) ... *) ... construct
