I also change the title of the terminal emulator window (via a small program run from the LOGIN paragraph) - a side benefit being you get the account name on the task bar button as well, which makes finding the correct session a breeze.

Another method if you are using a terminal emulator is to use the login paragrah to change the title of the session at the top of the screen. I also try to change the screen color, ie Red background is the live account which you should also be able to set through the login paragraph Regards David Jordan Managing Consultant [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dacono Holdings Pty Ltd Business & Technology Consulting PO Box 909 Lane Cove NSW 2066 Australia Ph 61 2 9418 8329 Fax 61 2 9427 2371 www.dacono.com.au -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Barry Brevik Sent: Tuesday, 9 March 2004 6:42 AM To: U2 list (E-mail) Subject: [UV] Change prompt? OK, I know about UVPROMPT, but it will only let you specify a single character. I work in numerous accounts, and it would be good if the LOGIN PA could change the prompt to have multiple characters so I can see which account I'm in. Believe me, all it takes is one mistake to leave a lasting impression. Anyone know of a way to use multiple chars for the prompt without writing my own shell? -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users Disclaimer.
