According to Eivind Eklund:

Is the "%{...%}" thing working for you inside PS1 please ?

With 3.0.2 or 3.1.1, I can't get it to work at all. To change the title
and icon, I must do

    if [ $TERM = xterm ]; then
        precmd() {
            print -n -P "\033]2;%n@%M:%/ - tty%l\007\033]1;tty%l@%m\007"
        }
    fi
    PS1="%h [%T] %B%n%b@%m:%B%2.%(#.#.>)%b "
    export PS1

because the following doesn't work:

PS1="%{\033]2;%n@%M:%/ - tty%l\007\033]1;tty%l@%m\007%}%h [%T] %B%n%b@%m:%B%2.%(#.#.>)%b "

cf zshmisc(1)

       %{...%}
              Include a string as a literal escape sequence.  The
              string within the braces should not change the cur-
              sor position.  Brace pairs can nest.

It does work in tcsh :-)
