Coming from a bash world, I really like knowing what directory I'm in at
the prompt. I tried putting this at the end of 'lib/profile':



fn cd{
    builtin cd $1
    prompt=3D('{pwd}^'% ' '    ')
}

cd $HOME



However, it doesn't work! The 'cd' command seems to do what it normally
does. The prompt stays at 'term% '. Does nothing.
