I do have one final question. If I set PS1 like this: PS1="\[\033]61;[EMAIL PROTECTED]:\w\\$ " Everything works great, no issues at all, what is expected is what is displayed. Now, when i make only a slight modification as such: PS1="\[\033]61;[EMAIL PROTECTED]@\h:\w\\$ " all the sudden i have a duplicate space after my prompt as in: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls db2Mgr. that goes away when i hit the tab complete button to show me my options: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls db2Mgr. db2Mgr.C db2Mgr.h [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls db2Mgr. I'm trying to get this prompt to work: PS1="\[\033]61;[EMAIL PROTECTED]@\H \W>" but the issue there is that the > is duplicated (just like the space above, but much more noticable). Any ideas as to why making the title modification to use [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of \w is causing these issues? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
