Hello, I just tried rxvt because I wanted to replace the hopeless cmd window. However, the "prompt" (not sure that is the correct word) doesn't look very nice, here it is copied and pasted:
\[\033]0;\w\007
[EMAIL PROTECTED] \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$
It looks similar, if not the same, as the result when I tried to set bash as the default shell for a native Windows Emacs cvs version. I guess the \[\033]0;\w\007
[EMAIL PROTECTED] \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\] should display the cwd if it was working correctly, yes?

These are ansi escape sequences, which won't work "inside" emacs, because it isn't an ANSI terminal.

As for rxvt, those should work just fine.  See this FAQ for a little bit
more info and a pointer to the rxvt docs:
