Bash Version: 5.0 Patch Level: 11 Release Status: release Description: I'm using the following PS1 prompt (Debian's default for normal users): \[\e]0;\u@\h: \w\a\]${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\ ]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\]\$ ...where the first block '\[\e]0;\u@\h: \w\a\]' is for setting xterm's title, and the rest is Debian's "fancy" shell prompt.
Is there a literal newline in the prompt string? And is it in the middle of the non-printing character block? -- ``The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.'' - Chaucer ``Ars longa, vita brevis'' - Hippocrates Chet Ramey, UTech, CWRU c...@case.edu http://tiswww.cwru.edu/~chet/
