Subject: fn prompt and readline
Date: Sun, 29 Sep 1991 11:28:14 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9109291628.AA12780@hacke10.dtek.chalmers.se> (raw)
If i define...
fn prompt {echo -n $HOSTNAME^'$'}
prompt=''
...I get...
<machine>$
...for prompt.
The Problem:
Using readline to step back in history, the prompt disappears after
a few steps. Is this a bug in readline or rc? What can I do to avoid it?
I haven't found this in 'rc-list', so hopefully it hasn't been
discussed yet (orelse flame me). :-)
