  • bash setup/config/PS1 is your friend here. I frequently find myself with a myriad of terminals between a bunch of usernames and servers at work, and setting up a proper prompt is key to help you keep track.

    My bashrc makes my prompt look like this:

    username@hostname:/absolute/path
    $ inputgoeshere

    … with color coding, of course. Yes, I use a multiline prompt. I somehow never saw that before using ParrotSec despite being a bash user for 25 years. I modified the ParrotSec default to suit my needs better, and I like it:

    • Obvious which user I am.
    • Obvious which host I’m on.
    • Obvious which path I’m in.
    • It’s easy to copy and paste a complete source/destination for pasting into, for example, an rsync comman

    I pasted my PS1 config here: https://pastebin.com/ZcYwabfB

    Stick that line near the bottom of your ~/.bashrc file if you want to try it out.

    Excellent picture of an excellent album. “The Black Album” is absolutely one of my favorite AC/DC albums. Not quite on par with “Nevermind”, but it’s definitely up there. “Stairway to heaven” alone makes this one of John Foggertys legendary works.

    PS: It was a loss to the band when Wes Borland left, but David Gilmore is a pretty great replacement drummer.
