I hope it will be helpful for you to answer the doubts of "how to modify the Linux command prompt according to your own habits". Next, please follow the editor to study!

The original [root@localhost] $is unavoidably tiresome after watching it for a long time. If you modify it according to your own habits, you can not only look comfortable, but also improve the "pressure". The following editor will introduce you in detail how to modify the Linux command prompt in accordance with your own habits. I hope it will be helpful to you!

Beautify Bash

1. Under the directory:

Vim .bashrc

Note: don't miss that point.

Then write to the end:

Export PS1= "\ u:\ w\\ $"

Note: there are no spaces at both ends of the equal sign.

After the modification is made, save and exit.

If you don't have .bashrc yourself, just copy the following into it.

# .bashrc

If [- f / etc/bashrc]; then

. / etc/bashrc

Fi

Export PS1= "\ u:\ w\\ $"

2. Now let's explain:

Export PS1= "\ u:\ w\\ $"

\ u indicates the user name

\ w indicates that the full path is displayed (the home directory is still abbreviated to "~", for example, ~ / bin/test)

\ W represents the Basename that displays the current path (for example, test)

\ h means host (the original localhost)

\ $indicates the prompt

\\ indicates a backslash

More content can be used:

Man bash

Then look for PS1 (as shown in the figure below, you can make various settings).

3. Finally, let's talk about the problem of color setting. You can put something like\ u on it:

\ [\ e [1x 34m\]\ u\ [\ e [m\]

In something like this. It will have a color. It looks complicated, but you can think of it as a parenthesis. If you wrap something in it, it will have color. The numbers inside are used to set the color.

For example, I set:

\ [\ e [1bot 34m\]\ u\ [\ e [m\]:\ w\\ $

Then the figure is as follows:

4. The first 1 indicates the highlight, and the following number is the color. Below, I tested several groups of colors for reference.

Change to another Shell

1. It is good to beautify Bash. You can also experience it with a different Shell. For example, the editor uses Zsh, as shown in the picture.

2, the picture is a screenshot of the .zshrc configuration file of zsh, which is similar to .bashrc, but with different syntax and functions, zsh is more powerful, you can go to the official website or technical blog to learn more about the use of zsh.

Note: be sure to use the Oh-my-zsh plug-in to enhance your zsh, specific methods:

Wget https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/raw/master/tools/install.sh-O-| sh

Matters needing attention

In addition to zsh, fish is also an excellent shell.
