Hi ;
I use bash shell in my FreeBSD machine . How do I change a promt from
"$" to "#" when I login as superuser from normal user to root ?
my .bashrc script looks as following .....
PS1="[\u@\h: \w]\$ "
alias ls='ls -F'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias mv='mv -i'
alias rm='rm -i
Another question , what is the function of PS2 and when to use it ? Please
advise ....
