Yeah, tmux's automatic renaming doesn't rely on those escape sequences (it supports them - not sure about the "magic" empty one from above, though); instead, it relies on OS-specific means to determine the name of the foreground process on the tty. You can turn off the automatic retitling on a particular window with the "set-w automatic-rename off" command; to disable it in the global settings, add -g. Renaming a window manually will also disable the automatic renaming. -- Micah J.
