Oh, and I've got this as my prompt. Drop this in ~/.bashrc if you use
bash...
function elite2 {
local TTY=`tty|cut -d/ -f3,4`
local C1="\[\033[32;40m\]"
local C2="\[\033[35;40m\]"
local C3="\[\033[0m\]"
local D="$C2-$C1"
PS1="$D(\u$C2@$C1\h)$D($TTY)$D(\$(date +%Y%m%d)$C2.$C1\$(date +%H%M))$C2-\n$D(\w)$C2
| $C3"
}
elite2
unset elite2
It makes a green and purple prompt that looks like this:
