in $HOME/.bashrc ... bold white
and in /root/.bashrc ... bold red
swap out '+' for any desireable character

^ Hey, that looks very sharp, dkeg. With a hash, it may confuse some that I might be in a root terminal, but I like it anyway :D

right on. Well, as long as it doesn't confuse you, that's all that matters. BTW, you have an uncommmented out ${vol} in your statusbar

You'd swear I was blind; I had to lean in towards the screen to see that stray "0". Thanks XD

finally,
1,5 years later, my newly found ricing joy has aimed itself at my PS1, and with a new and better understanding of unicode characters, i did indeed switch.
Code: Select all
PS1=$'\n\\[\e[1;34m\\]\u250C\u2524\u@\h [\w]\\[\e[0m\\]\n\\[\e[1;34m\\]\u2514\u2500\u2500\u2524\\[\e[0m\\]\$ '
debated whether to add job-number and history-number to it, but i never use it so left it out for now.
another intricate bit of customization: changed my hostname from 'grill' to 'lalala' :D

prompt hmm, well right now its just a single dash. Its color is based on my battery state && level.
Code: Select all
PS1="\[\$(/home/dkeg/bin/promptd)\] - \[\e[0m\]"
