Nope, me too. I can see maybe using a prompt like this temporarily, or putting this info in an XTerm's title, but I spend most of my time on the command line and really don't want crap like this distracting me.
My prompt on localhost is always "$ " or "# ", but I add user and host on remote machines to avoid making any big mistakes on the servers I manage.
- silentbicycle 16y agoCome to think of it, I do actually keep that info around, I just put it in the status line* in tmux or dwm, rather than cluttering my shell prompt with it. I guess that's a different post, though! * Mine currently says: 3.1 pra | 0:ksh 1:top 2:ksh 4:ksh- 5:w3m* | . 1.45, 1.57, 1.01 . 2010-10-07 23:07 which has system load, time, battery (on laptops), etc. "pra" = "pranaferox", my desktop. (I usually have a lot more shells open than that, but I turned everything off while installing a new light in the ceiling earlier.)
