then answers own question...

zsh uses functions...

# If this is an xterm set the title to user at host:dir
case $TERM in
  xterm*)
        chpwd () { echo -en "\033]0;$(print -P "$USER@%m:%~")\007" ;} # oddly %h expands like %!
    ;;
  *)
    ;;
esac


maybe there is a way to make print work like echo -en, or to have print
-P properly expand %h, but I'm not sure...
