In my sleep I remembered a Gentoo prompt I once saw. ;) It had colours. Your suggestion helps me to get something like that done. As for the other solutions, I perhaps should have been more clear about this, seem to be tied to a specific terminal. I don't want that. If I log in from the toaster I want it to be obvious where I am (or more real putty or that thing that comes with Cygwin when I am in a restricting/restricted area).
