Credits/Bibliography</H1 ><P >In producing this document, I have borrowed heavily from the work of the Bashprompt project, which was at <A HREF="http://bash.current.nu/" TARGET="_top" >http://bash.current.nu/</A >. This site was removed from its server as of July 2001 but Robert Current, the admin, assured me it would reappear soon. Unfortunately, it appears he's now (May 2003) let his domain registration lapse. The work of that project is carried on indirectly by <A HREF="http://bashish.sourceforge.net/" TARGET="_top" >Bashish (http://bashish.sourceforge.net/)</A >, with whom I've had no contact. Other sources used include the <EM >xterm Title mini-HOWTO</EM > by Ric Lister, available at <A HREF="http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/mini/Xterm-Title.html" TARGET="_top" >http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/mini/Xterm-Title.html</A >, <EM >Ansi Prompts</EM > by Keebler, available at <A HREF="http://www.ncal.verio.com/~keebler/ansi.html" TARGET="_top" >http://www.ncal.verio.com/~keebler/ansi.html</A > (now deceased), <EM >How to make a Bash Prompt Theme</EM > by Stephen Webb, available at <A HREF="http://bash.current.nu/bash/HOWTO.html" TARGET="_top" >http://bash.current.nu/bash/HOWTO.html</A > (also deceased), and <EM >X ANSI Fonts</EM > by Stumpy, available at <A HREF="http://home.earthlink.net/~us5zahns/enl/ansifont.html" TARGET="_top" >http://home.earthlink.net/~us5zahns/enl/ansifont.html</A >. </P ><P >Also of immense help were several conversations and e-mails from Dan, who used to work at Georgia College & State University, whose knowledge of Unix far exceeded mine. He gave me several excellent suggestions, and ideas of his have led to some interesting prompts. </P ><P >Three books that have been very useful while programming prompts are <EM >Linux in a Nutshell</EM > by Jessica Heckman Perry (O'Reilly, 3rd ed., 2000), <EM >Learning the Bash Shell</EM > by Cameron Newham and Bill Rosenblatt (O'Reilly, 2nd ed., 1998) and <EM >Unix Shell Programming</EM > by Lowell Jay Arthur (Wiley, 1986. This is the first edition, the fourth came out in 1997). </P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="x89.html" ACCESSKEY="P" >Prev</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H" >Home</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="x138.html" ACCESSKEY="N" >Next</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >Problems</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="c23.html" ACCESSKEY="U" >Up</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >Disclaimer</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
