pyprompt 0.0.2

UNKNOWN

bash prompt written in python.

The prompt is using a two line layout:

• info-line (username, hostname and current directory) and input are on separate lines

• full path is displayed

• the info line uses a background color to create a visual separator between the commands you run. The background color doubles as indicator if the last command had a non zero return code

• if you are into mouse usage from time to time, the path is separated from the hostname by a space so double clicking the path selects only the path (at least in gnome-terminal)

usage

pip install pyprompt
# set PS1 environment variable (for example in your .bashrc)
PS1="\$(pyprompt \$?)"
