When executing interactively, bash displays the primary | |
prompt PS1 when it is ready to read a command, and the | |
secondary prompt PS2 when it needs more input to complete | |
a command. Bash allows these prompt strings to be cus | |
tomized by inserting a number of backslash-escaped special | |
characters that are decoded as follows: | |
\a an ASCII bell character (07) | |
\d the date in "Weekday Month Date" format | |
(e.g., "Tue May 26") | |
\e an ASCII escape character (033) | |
\h the hostname up to the first `.' | |
\H the hostname | |
\j the number of jobs currently managed by the | |
shell | |
\l the basename of the shell's terminal device | |
name | |
\n newline | |
\r carriage return | |
\s the name of the shell, the basename of $0 | |
(the portion following the final slash) | |
\t the current time in 24-hour HH:MM:SS format | |
\T the current time in 12-hour HH:MM:SS format | |
\@ the current time in 12-hour am/pm format | |
\u the username of the current user | |
\v the version of bash (e.g., 2.00) | |
\V the release of bash, version + patchlevel | |
(e.g., 2.00.0) | |
\w the current working directory | |
\W the basename of the current working direc | |
tory | |
\! the history number of this command | |
\# the command number of this command | |
\$ if the effective UID is 0, a #, otherwise a | |
$ | |
\nnn the character corresponding to the octal | |
number nnn | |
\\ a backslash | |
\[ begin a sequence of non-printing characters, | |
which could be used to embed a terminal con | |
trol sequence into the prompt | |
\] end a sequence of non-printing characters |
