FWIW Haiku uses bash and has a prompt which changes colour (green/red) depending on whether the status code of the last command was good or bad. I found this surprisingly useful. They use: \[`if [ $? = 0 ]; then echo "\e[32m"; else echo "\e[31m"; fi`\]\w[\e[0m\]>
Warning: This is intrusive because reading the status code via "$?" resets it to zero: $ false $ echo $? 1 $ echo $? 0 $ So a follow-on script cannot tell whether the command just before the color-changing prompt succeeded or failed. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
