I have the following in my ~/.mc/bashrc:
test -n "$PS1" && PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '
PS1="mc: $PS1"
function mc() { echo -e 'You are already in MC subshell\a\a'; }
I do not remember the reason why function worked better for me than alias
which I had initially, but there had to be some;
Additionally I modify prompt PS1 (after setting it to value I prefer if it
was empty) so that it is clear that I am under MC even if panels are
hidden.
