Since this is not a Qubes-specific question, you might have better
luck searching the web for how to do this in Fedora (or Linux in
general) or asking in a Fedora (or general Linux) venue.
I wonder if this *is* Qubes specific, as it is stated that the Debian
prompt is in color. (Implicit, I think, is the suggestion that the color
matches the window decorations.)
OP - is that what you see? That the prompt is consistent with the window
decoration set by Qubes?
No the colour of the prompt does not follow the window decoration, I was
wondering if this isn't maybe a problem only on Fedora on Qubes and not
Fedora in general. I don't have a Fedora standalone I can check on. I
just found it odd that the prompt on Debian would be in colour (Green,
and it is real easy to find in between a lot of other output) and on
Fedora it is the same colour as the text you type. But as I was
re-reading my reply here I just had another look over and I just
discovered that the prompt on some of the Fedora VMs is in colour, also
a bright green, and some of them are default text colour. So in essense
it doesn't have anything to do with Qubes. I am a little confused though
because I can swear some of the VMs that I previously check where the
prompt was the default text colour now has a colourful prompt. (head
scratch head scratch)
It must be because of a dependency that gets installed along the way
because booting the vanilla Fedora-37 template it does not have a
colourful prompt. I don't install anything specific for this myself.
Glad we cleared that up :-)
