My prompt is now:

fc173108 at sparko:xxx:
   ^^^     ^^^  ^^^
    |       |    |
account  machine line#

and I would rather have my path shown, or the time, or just something else.

I mean, I know which account I'm in, and what machine I'm on.  I think
I need to stick something in my .kshrc file but I don't know what.

Anyone know?

Thanks,


Iqbal
