Hi all. I'm wondering if anyone knows how I might be able to execute
the same command just before the execution of a command issued at the
prompt of a bash shell.
Currently, I have my bash prompt set up so that it displays the current
date. If I can print the date just before each command is executed, I
can always be able to get a sense of how long each command has taken.
Anyone has any idea how I might go about printing the date just before
the execution of each bash command? I just don't know where I would
start. Thanks for any help.
Why not just use /usr/bin/time for the commands which you you want to
time?

I guess I could do that, it's just that I use certain commands almost
"instinctively" and sometimes I forget. A lot of times I'm running
certain processes one after the other in several shells. It is after
I've run them that I realize that it would have been nice to "time" some
of them.
I suppose I could just be more attentive as to which commands I'd like
to "time". I'll keep what you say in mind. :-)
