How to make Konsole show full path?

Hi,
how can I make Konsole show the full path? Such as

[spotty@endi ~]$
[spotty@endi ~]$ cd /run/media/spotty/WinLin
[spotty@endi WinLin]$

that is, /run/media/spotty/ just disappeared from view after cd. However. I would like to see it something like this

[spotty@endi /run/media/spottyWinLin]$

or whatever, just the fill path. I did not find anything helpful in Konsole Preferences. Anyone could help, please?
Thanks, endocub

P.S- For special purposes, I have been using full path in the Ubuntu terminal for years.

If you are using bash, edit ~/.bashrc, find the line for PS1 and change \W to \w.

The type source ~/.bashrc to have it take effect.

Thank you very much dalto! It worked!
May I add another question related to this Konsole: I could not figure out how to change the color scheme in edit > preferences. The problem is, sometimes I can barely read words (foldernames maybe) if they are highlighted with brilliant green background and the text is next to invisible (I think in light blue).

How can I change this, say, Konsole color light grey instead of black, ordinary lettering in black, and highlighted text better visible?

You can’t edit built-in default Konsole profile. Create new one, switch to it (set as default) and change according to your preferences

Settings > Configure Konsole > Profiles > New > Edit > Appearance

Thanks firefly, I had created a new profile before, but did not touch the icons in the left column, because there was keyboard, mouse etc. there. I had not thought they were Konsole related. Now I changed Appearance, and am happy.
A subsolution checkmark to you :grinning:
