Hi,

I'm using SuSE 7, and I have a couple of queries - if anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

1. The root prompt is '$' rather than the more traditional '#'. I'd prefer the latter - how do I change it?

PS1="# " (put this in root's .profile)

2. I'm accessing the SuSE machine from a Windoze box via Reflexion (an X client for Windows). It works very well, except that in the shell backspace acts as delete, and shift-backspace acts as backspace. Anyone got any ideas how to change this?

stty erase <backspace> where you actually type the backspace key where I have put <backspace> Cliff
