personally, I like having a very clean prompt and keep the relevant
information about the shell in the titlebar, hence:
case $TERM in
linux) declare PS1='\w \$ ';;
*) declare PS1='\[\e]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED] (\t \d) \w\a\]\$ ';;
esac
this gives me titles like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (hh:mm:ss day month day-of-month) path
and a prompt consisting of "$ ". =)
