<confrontation mode=head-butt>oh yeah? looks to me like this only checks
whether you're running under an X-window *term versus the console, not whether
you're logged in as root. aha! gotcha!</confrontation>
here's my iteration on top of your stuff, and <flameproof suit at hand> please
feel free to gimme pointers on how to make this (particularly colors) more
modular...
function munge_ps1
{
local TITLEBAR=''
local PROMPT='$'
if [ "$BASH" ]; then
local COLOR='43;34;3'
if [ $EUID = '0' ] ; then
COLOR='41;33;1'
PROMPT='#'
fi
PROMPT="[EMAIL PROTECTED];40;1m: \w \e[0m\n${PROMPT}"
else
if [ "`id -u`" -eq 0 ]; then
PROMPT='#'
fi
fi
case $TERM in
xterm*|rxvt|eterm|wterm)
TITLEBAR='\[\e]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]:\w\007\]'
;;
*)
TITLEBAR=''
;;
esac
PS1="${TITLEBAR}${PROMPT} "
}
