I edited this file several times, and long since forgot what I did to it): # are we an interactive shell? if [ "$PS1" ]; then if [ "x`tput kbs`" != "x" ]; then # We can't do this with "dumb" terminal stty erase `tput kbs` fi case $TERM in xterm*) PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME}: ${PWD}\007"' ;; *) ;; esac if [ "x$SHLVL" != "x1" ]; then # We're not a login shell for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do if [ -x $i ]; then . $i fi done fi fi Carl Soderstrom -- Network Engineer Real-Time Enterprises (952) 943-8700
