I use this little hack in my .cshrc to give me easily modified prompts.
This one give you a machine name as well as present directory referenced
from users home directory.
if ($?prompt) then
# An interactive shell -- set some stuff up
set mch = `hostname -s`
alias prompt 'set noglob;\\
set prompt = `dirs`;\\
set prompt = "${mch}:{!}:${prompt[1]}>";\\
unset noglob'
alias popd 'popd \!*; prompt'
alias pushd 'pushd \!*; prompt'
