I think what you want is: PS1="\u:\w >" The \u inserts the current user name, and the \w inserts the current working directory. See 'man bash' for more details. Bye, Chris -- __ _ -o)/ / (_)__ __ ____ __ Chris Reeves /\\ /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / ICQ# 22219005 _\_v __/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

Why don't you read the man pages? man bash I didn't say anything about me not having read the man pages!
