Debian prompt takes variables in PS1 literally
Domanda
I have a small problem with the prompt on a debian server, I keep getting the variables as literals:
PS1='\u \w $'
gives me a prompt showing:
\u \w $
where it should imho show:
username dirname $
What am I missing here?
Soluzione
Are you sure your shell is bash ? With other shells (such as dash), such variables may not work.
