On all my Dutch Windows all group names are localized apart from 544/Administrators. # id uid=1000(Frank) gid=513(Geen) groups=513(Geen),0(root),544(Administrators),545(Gebruikers) But I agree checking the numeric value is better. >> If more people like this idea, maybe it could included in /etc/bash.bashrc? > > I'll have to think about it, but I lean toward putting it into profile.d > instead. Thanks for considering. The other PS1 setting (user@host dir) is also in bash.bashrc. That's why I suggested bash.bashrc.
