I used to run Gentoo and when I moved to Ubuntu all the sudden my Bash prompt command would work correctly. It would correctly set the window title but it would also display "134134" in front of my prompt. Here is my PROMPT_COMMAND line:
export PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033k\033\134\033k$(if [ ${UID} == "0" ]; then echo "root"; else $(if [ ${HOSTNAME} != "malkier" ]; then echo ${HOSTNAME}; fi;); echo [$(basename "${PWD}" | sed "s/^\([[:alnum:][:space:].]\{0,25\}\).*$/\1/" )]; fi;)\033\134"' Sorry but I do not remember what versions of bash and/or screen I was using on Gentoo for sure. Now I am running CVS screen (just started, and the issue was initially noticed in 4.0.3) and bash 3.2.13. Also this is the 64 bit Ubuntu if that makes any difference. Thanks, -- "Beware of spyware.
