I've been looking for a change to my plain, white bash prompt. In connection with my thread here, I've decided that Mint Forums needs a .bashrc thread where anybody can post their .bashrc files and a screenshot of their custom prompts.
So let's have it! Show us your .bashrc!
Show us your .bashrc!

Re: Show us your .bashrc!
OK. After three days and fifteen views, nobody's biting. I guess I'll go first.
I found this one online somewhere and modified it to suit my own color preferences. In the terminal titlebar (or in the prompt in a TTY) I get the number 34 right before my username. I can't quite figure out why.
Anywho...
