RE: Prompt in Korn shell

2001-06-22 Thread Jenkins, Michael

You can also use ^L^M to get a line break and return in your prompt.  You
will need to press ^V (ctrl and V at the same time), then press the L or
M key.

Alex,
Sorry, about that messed up post. Hit send before completing the cutpaste:

Here is one way to do this:
PS1='$LOGNAME@$HOST:$PWD:${ORACLE_SID:-ORUNDEF}
!-- '
export PS1

Split the string for PS1 in two lines. 

Hope this helps.

On a related note, once the PWD's been crammed in there is it possible 
to substitute ~ for the home directory (like bash does)?  Something 
like:

 mehoo@somewhere[~]$

instead of

 mehoo@somewhere[/foo/bar/mehoo]$


It looks like ksh93 has some string replacement features which might 
work... unfortunately I seem to be stuck with ksh88.

Alex,
Sorry, about that messed up post. Hit send before completing the cutpaste:

Here is one way to do this:
PS1='$LOGNAME@$HOST:$PWD:${ORACLE_SID:-ORUNDEF}
!-- '
export PS1

Split the string for PS1 in two lines. 

Hope this helps.

 Now I have another problem.
 
 export PS1='$LOGNAME@$HOST:$PWD:${ORACLE_SID:-ORUNDEF}\n!-' - result is:
 
 oracle8i@coin-app:/u01/app/psoft/PSTEST/appserv:PSTESTn133-
 
 instead of 
 
 oracle8i@coin-app:/u01/app/psoft/PSTEST/appserv:PSTEST
 133-
 
 Looks like it does not understand \n as a new line character.
 
 Any ideas please.

RE: Prompt in Korn shell

2001-06-20 Thread Kevin Lange

One of the easiest ways to do it is to overload the CD command.   That is,
build your own CD command and alias the real CD to it.  In your command, you
will display the variables you want to on your prompt.  I have done it
before.  If you want a sample, let me know and I will dig up what we did (it
was at the last job).   

The only drawback is that it only change when you change directory.  It is
not interactive and changing on every command.

Re: Prompt in Korn shell

2001-06-20 Thread DBarbour


Alex -

If you're using /usr/bin/ksh as your shell, you read the .profile
(.dtprofile on an XDMCP login) in the user's home file.  The shell variable
is PS1.  Here's a snippet from my .profile on an HP-UX box:

#!/usr/bin/ksh

###
#  Set up the cursor
###

export USER=`logname`
export HOST=`hostname`
export PS1='$HOST:$USER $PWD'


The prompt looks like this:

qe2l1:dbarbour /home/oraclecd /etc
qe2l1:dbarbour /etc

You can add variables such as $ORACLE_SID or whatever else you want to see.
The tics around the commands logname and hostname are the backwards single
quote off the tilde key (I have no idea what they're called - except
backwards single quotes), they indicate the shell should execute the
command.  PWD is a standard shell variable in ksh.

Hope this helps.
