hi,

i'm getting bored off this anonymous shell prompt i've got
Code:
bash-2.05b$


i went into ~/.bahsrc and change
Code:
 PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033_${USER}@${HOSTNAME%%.*}:${PWD/$HOME/~}\033\\"'
               by
PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "${USER}@${HOSTNAME%%.*}:${PWD/$HOME/~}"'


know this is what i got
Code:
manu@booba:~bash-2.05b$


still this bloody bash2.05 hanging around ... does anybody knows where the $ or # is appended to manu@booba:~ ?
cheers

Extra informative Bash prompt might have the information.

The real (normal) prompt is in $PS1, not $PROMPT_COMMAND
Here's my bash prompt (in ~/.bashrc) :
Code:
export PS1='\n\d \t\n\w\n\u@\h \$ '
