 it interferes with window names defined in configuration files and profile
 managers.
 
+To format terminal window and tab titles, add the following to *zpreztorc*:
+
+    zstyle ':prezto:module:terminal:window-title' format '%n@%m: %s'
+    zstyle ':prezto:module:terminal:tab-title' format '%m: %s'

+`%s` will be replaced with the current working directory path or the currently
+executing program name.
