Tweakin' your Bash Prompt
About a month after moving into my new Slackware install, I have finally gotten around to setting up my cool Bash prompt again... only this time it's perfect.
Now for my own custom hack:
In my prompt I like to see:
* the date
* the time
* the full directory path
* the exit status of the last command
the exit status thing is for installing packages, compiling source, and other bothersome situations where I'd need to type "echo $?" to find out (clearly) if what I just tried to do worked or not.
