1715.1 | You can do it with ARP too | PUERTO::ALVAREZ | Miguel,from sunny Puerto Rico | Thu Sep 22 1988 17:13 | 6 |
| You can also do it if you have ARP. There is a command (I'm
at work, so I don't have it on hand), which will make your CLI prompt
be your current device and directory/sub-directory. I'll look for
it and add it here tomorrow.

1715.3 | | RDCV01::RANDREWS | Out of his mind, but not dangerous | Thu Sep 22 1988 19:50 | 6 |
| I've got it at home, I'll try to do it later tonight when I get
there (probably early morning)
I looked it it. It seems VERY different from 2.07 that I have.
Not as friendly at all. I didn't like it.

1715.4 | ARP PROMPT | LEDS::ACCIARDI | | Fri Sep 23 1988 01:18 | 6 |
|
Under ARP, just type 'PROMPT' or insert PROMPT into your startup
file. Any CLI prompt will now be the current directory for that
window.

1715.5 | switches required? | GILBRT::BEAUREGARD | Roger Beauregard SHR1-3 | Fri Sep 23 1988 09:19 | 12 |
|
Actually, if you're using ARP, there are switchs you can add to
the end of the prompt command. I'm pretty sure they are %n and %p.
%n will give you the cli number (e.g. 3>) and %p will give you the
current directory (e.g. df0:c). I could be wrong about the %p switch
since I installed the switch in my startup sequence months ago
and haven't looked at it since. If %p isn't correct, just read the
ARP documentation, it's in there. I am sure about the %n.

1715.6 | Prompt "%N %p" really... | PUERTO::ALVAREZ | Miguel,from sunny Puerto Rico | Fri Sep 23 1988 09:20 | 11 |

You need a little more than that. If you type Prompt "string",
your CLI prompt will always be "string". Prompt "%N %p" will make
your CLI be your task number (%N) and your current directory (%p).

1715.7 | | MTWAIN::MACDONALD | WA1OMM 7.093/145.05/223.58 AX.25 | Fri Sep 23 1988 10:47 | 11 |
| The Dillon Shell for V2.10 IS different than the previous release
that most of you are using, mainly because it hasn't been Drewized
yet. Drew's changes typically improve the friendliness and
functionality. There appear to be several bugs in V2.10. For example,
if you type DIR V* to display all files starting with V, the entire
directory is displayed. If you type DEL * to delete all the files
in the directory, it only deletes a few. Those with name longer
than n characters are missed. However, typing DEL * a second time
removes the remaining files. Very strange indeed.
