The default behavior for the shell prompt now is to only display "$" or "#", without the [user at host dir] prefix. I just subscribed to the list today so I missed out on any discussion on this; was there a reason the [user at host dir] prefix was not left in the changes ("export PS1="[\u@\h \W]\\$ "")? I have not encountered a Linux distribution that does not display this or a similar prompt, and I think it would be beneficial to add it back in. I agree that the aliases, colors, etc should stay removed. Thanks, David
