Word. And just for the record, here's what I'm using in my .zshrc:
#window titles
case $TERM in
screen*)
preexec () {print -Pn "\ek$1\e\\\\\e]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]: $1\a"}
chpwd () {print -Pn "\e]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]: %~\a"}
;;
(E|a|k|x|dt)term*|rxvt)
preexec () {print -Pn "\e]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]: $1\a"}
chpwd () {print -Pn "\e]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]: %~\a"}
