NAME
byobu-prompt, byobu-enable-prompt, byobu-disable-prompt - add and remove a nice color
prompt to your shell configuration
SYNOPSIS
byobu-prompt
byobu-enable-prompt
byobu-disable-prompt
DESCRIPTION
Byobu provides a special PS1 prompt command, compatible with Bash shells. It will display
the previous command's exit code, if it's not zero. It will use 3 separate colors for the
local username, hostname, and the current working directory.
byobu-enable-prompt will add one line to your ~/.bashrc.
You can safely remove the line from your ~/.bashrc, which ends in #byobu-prompt.
byobu-disable-prompt will remove its color configuration from ~/.bashrc.
byobu-prompt is an interactive wrapper of the previous two tools.
BUGS
This is currently only compatible with bash(1).
