No. "xterm" is aliased earlier,

  xterm   xterm -n "$USER@$HOST" &

And I do not want to use the alias.

This is actually one of those things I have always meant to ask
about. Is there a better way to do that? Setting 'XTerm.title:
$USER@$HOST' in .Xresources would not have the desired effect for
several reasons.
