Hi!

In download/docs, the shell is represented by
ai%
The attached patch removes the "ai" part to conform with the style guidlines.


That is, I thought it should be "%". But in admin/style.pod, the opposite is
stated, i.e. ai% ls -l


So what's correct?

I'll vote for %

I'd prefer to have some short prefix in prompt.

  %

  works fine, but not

  #

when you want to indicate that the shell is running under root, because some people think it's a comment (and some get confused with % too). Therefore:

  ai% test
  ai# test

are less confusing. Hence the note in the style guide.

I wasn't sure which prompt to use, so it'll be short and cool, so for a time being I've used 'ai'.

If there is a strong opinion not to use this kind of prompt we can change it. Of course in either case we should be consistent, which is not the case now.
