Instructions for installing prompt files.

  1. Save these two files into your home directory:

        ~/.stdprompt
    ~/.stdprompt_csh

  2. Remove any existing prompt setup commands you may have in your ~/.cshrc, ~/.tcshrc or ~/.login files.

  3. Add the following commands to your ~/.cshrc file:

    # SETUP PROMPT FOR LOGINS
#    $?prompt test avoids setting up a prompt needlessly
#    for rsh(1) and shell escapes.
#
if ( $?prompt && -e ~/.stdprompt ) source ~/.stdprompt

  4. Re-login to see your new prompt. (or type source ~/.stdprompt)
