What is the point of delaying the time it takes to open a terminal by running a bloatscript that probes your system just to clutter up your screen with information you already know and probably don't care about at the time?

>>56260007
Delays it for maybe half a second the first time I start it. Besides, it looks cool.

I was so sad when they removed ddate from util-linux.

Also, I stayed in Buenos Aires for about 6 months a few years ago. Was fucking awesome.

I don't really see the point in fancy prompts, the terminal is there to do work not to look qt and display uguu anime.

When I login over SSH I use fortune to serve me up a deep thought from Jack Handey. Otherwise it's just plain.

Tack this onto your .bashrc to do something similar:

#spit out a deep thought when logging in from ssh:
if [[ $SSH_CONNECTION ]] ; then
    echo " "
    echo "Deep thought of the moment:"
    echo " "
    fortune /media/bigdrive/fortunes/
    echo " "
fi

You should >&2 this so it writes to stderr. Otherwise, tools like rsync will be confused.

I've experimented with bash and zsh, and now typically use fish for interactive shells, switching to bash $ for POSIX scripting when needed.

>>56260743
No, I am confused.

What does >&2 do exactly?

>>56263794
Stdout to stderr

>>56259981
Try ZSH, I'm much more productive in it

Mine is just PS1='/w/$'

Looks like ~$ when in /home.

How do I get cute girls into xshell as background, I was forced to retire putty at work.

Zsh + vi bindings running extremely comfy.

might as well use Ubuntu or Mint and not have to deal with that pacman shit

How about a dancing Kirby?

export ORIG_PS1=$PS1
export KIRBY_IDX=0
KIRBY_FRAMES=("<('.'<)" "^('.')^" "(>'.')>" "^('.')^")
export PROMPT_COMMAND='export PS1="$ORIG_PS1${KIRBY_FRAMES[KIRBY_IDX]} "; export KIRBY_IDX=$(expr $(expr $KIRBY_IDX + 1) % ${#KIRBY_FRAMES[@]})'

plain 'n' simple is the best way to go

can anyone explain to a retard the difference between running bash/zhs/fish? i know fish has autocompletion and looks nice but is there any other reason to switch?

Only if you're a hipster.
