Our default prompt looks something like this:
[я @ linuxbox ~] $
[я @ linuxbox ~] $
Notice that it contains our username, our hostname and our current working directory, but how did it get that way? Very simply, it turns out. The prompt is defined by an environ- ment variable named PS1 (short for “prompt string one”). We can view the contents of PS1 с эхо команда:
[я @ linuxbox ~] $ echo $PS1
[\ u @ \ h \ W] \ $
[я @ linuxbox ~] $ echo $PS1
[\ u @ \ h \ W] \ $
Note: Don't worry if your results are not exactly the same as the example above. Every Linux distribution defines the prompt string a little differently, some quite exotically.
From the results, we can see that PS1 contains a few of the characters we see in our prompt such as the brackets, the at-sign, and the dollar sign, but the rest are a mystery. The astute among us will recognize these as backslash-escaped special characters такое как
