Changes to the prompt command

Post by Aruon »

Currently, the command 'prompt' without any following strings will reset your prompt to the very basic default setting. That's....not so useful other than if you're starting your prompt line over from scratch.

I propose that prompt instead be made so it displays your current prompt setup so you can just use that as a base to edit as you need, and a prompt reset command be how you get to the default setting.

Actually making a prompt isn't nearly as daunting as it looked, but I had to write one from scratch earlier and it was not so easy due to weird things like color bleeding, personal bias against some colorings, etc. But all I wanted was to add in the group rank/posture to what I already had, but I couldn't remember what the prompt was since it was done a very long time ago.
