Hello , gurus !

I am using bash (version: 2.01) on my 2.2.6 box.
I put the following line in my .profile:

PS1='`pwd`$ '

It works well in console mode, But after I start X
it does not take any effect in xterm. By the way,
I am using lesstif as my window manager. I do not
know what to do :-(

Thanks.

Peihan Wang
