But I'll need to take a deep breath to figure out the nice Bash lines
that you sent to the list. :-)

I didn't invent this totally; i picked it from some default Debian .bashrc years ago. I bet you can still find at least part of it in the default .bashrc, although commented out. All these \[ escape sequences are recognized by the terminal / terminal emulator to set the color. I think they come from the vt100 or a descendent.
The prompt above writes
the chroot name - if any - in the default color, between parentheses,
then "root@hostname:" in red for root (green for me and magenta for www-data),
then current directory, in blue,
then "# " in the default color
