Hm, tcsh, never used that shell on Linux. For bash I am using following:

$ cat /etc/sysconfig/bash-prompt-xterm

#!/bin/bash
echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME}: ${PWD}         [ `tty | sed -e
"s:/dev/::"` ]\007"

The script file must be executable and is automatically included by
/etc/bashrc. I think for tcsh you will have to put something similar
into ~/.tcsh.
