just something I picked up on the interwebs, and cleaned up a bit. the one in the scrot above I just moved the newline character to before the working directory.
edit: just use this, pretty much the original. I found issues with my modified version
Code: Select all
PS1="\[\033[0;37m\]\342\224\214\342\224\200\$([[ \$? != 0 ]] && echo \"[\[\033[0;31m\]\342\234\227\[\033[0;37m\]]\342\224\200\")[$(if [[ ${EUID} == 0 ]]; then echo '\[\033[0;33m\]\u\[\033[0;37m\]]\342\224\200[\[\033[0;31m\]\h'; else echo '\[\033[0;36m\]\u\[\033[0;37m\]]\342\224\200[\[\033[0;31m\]\h'; fi)\[\033[0;37m\]]\342\224\200[\[\033[0;32m\]\w\[\033[0;37m\]]\n\[\033[0;37m\]\342\224\224\342\224\200\342\224\200\342\225\274 \[\033[0m\]"

Set it in your ~/.bashrc digz, assuming that bash is your default shell.

Great!
Open up and place in your .bashrc
Edit, woop, too late
edit2: cleaned up simpler version
Code: Select all
PS1="\[\033[0;37m\]\[[\033[0;36m\]\u\[\033[0;37m\]]\342\224\200[\[\033[0;31m\]\h\[\033[0;37m\]]\342\224\200[\[\033[0;32m\]\w\[\033[0;37m\]]\n\[\033[0;37m\]\342\224\224\342\224\200\342\224\200\342\225\274\[\033[0m\]"
If interested, this is the breakdown
Code: Select all
[username] - \[\033[0;37m\]\[[\033[0;36m\]\u\[\033[0;37m\]]
dash - \342\224\200
[hostname] - [\[\033[0;31m\]\h\[\033[0;37m\]]

[working directory] - [\[\033[0;32m\]\w\[\033[0;37m\]]
newline - \n
line - \[\033[0;37m\]\342\224\224\342\224\200\342\224\200\342\225\274

i always liked those prompts that had the info, then the ASCII-lines and shit to the line underneath. beautiful. i use a much simpler prompt myself but if i ever switch it will be to something like that.

pretty much the same as the PS1 posted above, with some slight mods to add battery status to the prompt
Code: Select all
PS1="\[\033[0;37m\]\][\[\033[0;35m\]\$(/path/to/battstat.sh)\033[0;37m\]]\342\224\200[\[\033[0;31m\]\[\A\[\033[0;37m\]]\342\224\200[\[\033[0;32m\]\w\[\033[0;37m\]]\n\[\033[0;37m\]\342\224\224\342\224\200\342\224\200\342\224\200\342\224\200\342\225\274 \[\033[0m\]"

This is not anything fancy, but it is my favorite ps1 line:
Code: Select all
PS1="\[\e]2;\u@\H \w\a\e[32;1m\]>\[\e[0m\] "
This will only work properly if your terminal or window manager has an
"information area" like a toolbar, or so.
If it does not, you won't know where you are!

Thanks rusty! Is it meant to show only a ">"? For me it does (I'm using bash indeed). Though from what I see in the line, it should at least show the user name and the host...
Can you make a quick scrot of yours?
