I think that's how it works. I use grml.org's zshrc and it shows many
things in my screen status line (by setting the window name):

* Git branches if I'm in a git repository
* Programs that are currently running in that window

It does not show the current working directory, but I don't think that
should be too difficult.

                Kind regards, Axel
