When I start the terminal with a bash shell, I read this string "\033]0;Window title\007" followed by the prompt and the other stuff. When I switch to zsh I read "\033[1m\033[7m%" and then the prompt. What is that? If I push the string manually into a gnome-terminal or an xterm $ echo -e "\033[1m\033[7m%" > /dev/pst/3 I get a % inversed and bold as expected... but starting the gnome-terminal (or xterm..) does not show anything... Is that some special stuff hidden by the terminals? I read it as "write % bold and inversed". Any hints? Regards, Mario --001a11c2ca023d0e0104ddf63048--
