BASH Profile

Do you spend a lot of time in the terminal? Do you use BASH? Did you know you could change your default BASH prompt easily?

This is my prompt: bash

As you can see, it has the current time, the username, the computer name, and the current working directory. If you’d like to use this prompt, you can download my bash_profile here and start using it by renaming it .bash_profile and putting it in your home directory. Running mv bash_profile ~/.bash_profile will do it.
