csh. add the following alias to ~/.cshrc 

  alias cd 'cd \!*;set prompt="`whoami`@`hostname`:`pwd`{\!}% "'

sh. add the following alias to ~./shrc

prompt=${USER}@$(hostname -s)   
cd()
{ 
  command cd "$@"
  case $PWD in
    "${HOME}"*) PS1="${prompt}[~${PWD#"${HOME}"}] " ;;
    *)          PS1="${prompt}[${PWD}] " ;;
  esac
}
cd $PWD         # initialize prompt
