I am of course new to linux, I'm taking a class in which one thing
we learned was to change the environmental variable of the prompt using
the line "PS1=" I want my prompt to display my current working
directory, and the way I did that in the class was add PS1=`pwd`">>" Now
the class was an older version of the bash shell running out on a
free-bsd server. I tried to get my prompt on mine at home by adding the
same line to my .bashrc file in my home directory. It only displays my
home directory, even when I change into other directories. So can
someone help with what I'm doing wrong and/or what's different than the
bash at school, that makes this difficult. I appreciate all the help
you've given me thus far.
Thx,
Elliot
P.S. I'm running mandrake 10.0 Official.
