To display the current directory with a command: $ pwd To have the current directory in the prompt (I think this is what you mean) (this only applies if bash is your shell): $ PS1='[EMAIL PROTECTED]:\w]\$ ' [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]$ See the `PROMPTING' section of the `bash' manual page for other things you can include in the prompt.
