Can someone help! I have been trying to explain the way bash works as follows. $PS1=\\u -2 returns user $PS1=\\\u -3 returns user $PS1=\\\\u -4 returns \u $PS1=\\\\\u -5 returns \u $PS1=\\\\\\u -6 returns \user $PS1=\\\\\\\u -7 returns \user $PS1=\\\\\\\\u -8 returns \u $PS1=\\\\\\\\\u -9 returns \u $PS1=\\\\\\\\\\u -10 returns \user $PS1=\\\\\\\\\\\u -11 returns \user $PS1=\\\\\\\\\\\\u -12 returns \\u I can understand somewhere around; $PS1=\\\u -3 returns user But more than that, I can't figure out why bash respond as it does. What the logic behind it?
