which you can test: the bash-color-prompt package there drops a conditionalized PS1 into /etc/profile.d/ for now.
$ sudo dnf-3 copr enable petersen/bash-color-prompt
$ sudo dnf install bash-color-prompt
This shouldn't really be the final solution
though - I would like it to be available
by default (even if turned off), but at least this allows more user-testing now in
different scenarios
.
The prompt is similar to the one
from my original post
and can still be "user-themed" with PROMPT_COLOR: it now defaults to normal green and
adds the red error
code from Stephan (
maybe this part could still be improve
d?)
- both now non-bright/bold
.
I can create a proper github or even pagure repo later if needed, but right now I feel it would be helpful to have more user-feedback first.
I am happy to adapt this into a F39 Change (it could be monochrome by default if pre-installed) if people want that: I feel it is only really compelling if integrated into default desktop installations in some form.
