For example, zsh '%n' (for username) corresponds to bash '\u', '%~' to '\w', and so on. I personally put the color, bold, normal, etc. sequences in a separate file, which is sourced inside the file setting prompt. That gives less of gobbledygook to parse. For zsh, i have somewhere in ~/.zshrc ... # http://www103.pair.com/parv/comp/unix/cf/sh/var/colors . ~/cf/sh/var/colors case $TERM in *xterm* | *rxvt* ) PS1="# ?:%? %j %l ${bold}${yellow_fg}%~${normal}${normal}" PS1="$PS1 %n.${bold}${cyan_fg}%m${normal}${normal}" PS1=" $PS1 (%D{%a %b%d %I%M}) #! " export PS1 ;; * ) PS1="# %j [EMAIL PROTECTED] %l ${bold}%3~${normal} # " export PS1 ;; esac ... similar thing is done for bash prompt. - Parv --
Hey Parv! This sounds truly fabulous man, I guess there's no need for me to switch to bash after all :) But like in the case of: local Normal="[0m" What's with that weird character? Thanks!
