Well, we can use many kind of character for a prompt. Maybe the % is old
school but at least people would understand.  In the programming language,
they use ">".
I have to admit that since everybody here used mdk9.1, I should use the one

I have to mention that I don't have my linux in my box because my Quantum
Fireball 30Gig, which was my HDD for my linux, is dead. I'm just answered
the e-mail by imagination.
