But do I put \[ \] around a \n (or include it there-in) ? Bash knows exactly what \n means in PS1 and can handle it well so we need not put \[ \] around \n . BTW: I also use MacOSX on my iBook G4. _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
