Make a look-alike bash prompt for Linux by adding this line of text to the end of your /home/username/.bashrc file…

PS1=”\n\[\[\e[0m\]\[\e[35m\]Command [\[\e[33;1m\]TL=\T\[\[\e[0m\]\[\e[35m\]]:[\[\e[36;1m\]\!\[\e[0m\]\[\e[35m\]] (\[\e[33;1m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\[\e[35m\])? : \[\e[37;1m\]”

Save, logout and then log back in.  Tada.  Your prompt now looks like this…

twprompt

Here is what the prompt contains…

Command [TL=<TIME>]:[<COMMAND HISTORY #>] (<CURRENT DIRECTORY>)? :

It’s actually useful.  You’re welcome.
