I have made my command prompt ($PS1) to be just username.../current_directory (using the 3 dots because my directory structure has lots of levels and they were taking up too much of the command line prompt).
However this would work better if, when I cd'd into a directory, the cd command showed what directory I get changed into. How can I have this happen?
btw my command prompt setting (that I don't wish to change) to do username...current_dir is:
if [ "$color_prompt" = yes ]; then
PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\]\$ '
else
PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u.../${PWD##*/}\$ '
fi
