In my .tcshrc I define and run an alias to set my terminal title. The title contains the hostname. I do this because I ssh to other machines a lot and I always need to know which host I am typing in. The alias is defined and run in the .tcshrc like this...
(where "^[" and "^G" are special control characters)
This is great when I ssh into a machine. The problem is when I exit the ssh, because the title will still show the now-old hostname. I have to manually run tt again after I exit ssh.
Is there any way this can be done automatically?

Please use CODE tags when displaying sample input, sample output, and code segments.
I don't use tcsh (or other csh derivatives), but with the Bourne shell and its derivatives you can set PS1 (the prompt string that is written to the terminal as a prompt to enter the next command when the last executed command completes. You could run tt in a command substitution when the prompt string is printed or (as many people do) you could print the hostname and current working directory as part of the command prompt. I assume csh and its derivatives have a similar method of setting the command prompt that is written when the shell is ready to read a command line when you are running the shell interactively.

B2 is not directly reacheable but you have to connect from a to B1, then from B1 you can execute the command ssh user@B2 pwd.
B1 and B2 are directly connected:
A => B1 => B2
