Dear list,
I am learning to change the terminal prompt. It now includes my machine name
and my user name, which is what I want to get rid of. I think that the prompt
is contained in an environment variable. I found that I can look at them by
using env without parameters, and that works. However, prompt is not in here.
Where do I need to look, to find the placeholders string that gives me my
prompt?
Paul.
