Please forgive me for summarizing someone elses question with my answer...
I just thought some folks might find this useful. The script is named cwt
and it either changes the dtterm window title to the parameter you enter
when you run the script (i.e. cwt newtitle) or it changes the dtterm window
title to the current working directory. It is kind of handy if you are
working on a lot of different windows. The parameter "name=$('pwd')" can
be changed to something like "name=$(hostname)" to set the window title to
the hostname if you are working on several systems.
The 'echo' statement is entered with the keystrokes in the #comment line.

-----------------------------------
#ksh cwt 1. apr. 1997 rnf
if test "" = "$1"
then
name=$('pwd')
echo " Enter a parameter with the command or title=hostname. "
else
name=$1
fi
echo " ^[]0;$name^G "
# "<ctrl>v<ctrl>[];$name<ctrl>v<ctrl>G"
