Yes, there were some brace related changes since 3.0.2 since
IGNORE_BRACES did not work properly in some cases. Now the closing brace
has to be followed by a blank or one of ; | &
[ "${(M)TERM#xterm}" = xterm ] && \
{stty -istrip -ixon ; function chpwd {print -Pn "\e]2;%m: $PWD\C-g"} }
But the proper syntax required by POSIX is
[ "${(M)TERM#xterm}" = xterm ] && \
{ stty -istrip -ixon ; function chpwd {print -Pn "\e]2;%m: $PWD\C-g";};}
That works even if IGNORE_BRACES is set. I'd strongly recommend using
this syntax.
