>This is a learning experience for me. I've come to know a fair bit about
|
|
what can be done to create interesting and useful Bash Prompts, but I need
|
|
your input to correct and improve this document. I no longer make code
|
|
checks against older versions of Bash, let me know of any incompatibilities
|
|
you find. </P

>I use the Linux Documentation Project HOWTOs almost exclusively in the HTML
|
|
format, so when I convert this from DocBook SGML (its native format), HTML
|
|
is the only format I check thoroughly. If there are problems with other
|
|
formats, I may not know about them and I'd appreciate a note about them. </P

|
|
>There are issues with the PDF and RTF conversions (as of December 2000),
|
|
including big problems with example code wrapping around the screen and
|
|
getting mangled. I always keep my examples less than 80 characters wide,
|
|
but the PDF version seems to wrap around 60. Please use online examples if
|
|
the code in these versions don't work for you. But they do look very
|
|
pretty. </P
