Whats in your .bashrc

If the prompt/command etc. executes without errors shows the green (or whatever color you assign) :check_mark:.
If there is a problem/error etc. shows the red (or whatever color you assign) ✘.

The commands whoami and uname -r are legit, so after :check_mark:, everything about …koukouroukou is bs, so ✘.

More of a classic prompt, add mkcd…

PS1="\e[1;32m\u@\h \e[0;34m\W\\e[0;0m\n#!> "

# Make and Enter directory
mkcd() { mkdir "$1" && cd "$1"; }
mkd() {
        mkdir -p "$@" && cd "$_"
}

Not sure if zshrc can be applied, I used that longer…

in zshrc I used this one:

# Make and Enter directory
mkcd(){ mkdir "$1" && cd "$1" ; }
# Dracula TTY
if [ "$TERM" = "linux" ]; then
	printf %b '\e[40m' '\e[8]' # set default background to color 0 'dracula-bg'
	printf %b '\e[37m' '\e[8]' # set default foreground to color 7 'dracula-fg'
	printf %b '\e]P0282a36'    # redefine 'black'          as 'dracula-bg'
	printf %b '\e]P86272a4'    # redefine 'bright-black'   as 'dracula-comment'
	printf %b '\e]P1ff5555'    # redefine 'red'            as 'dracula-red'
	printf %b '\e]P9ff7777'    # redefine 'bright-red'     as '#ff7777'
	printf %b '\e]P250fa7b'    # redefine 'green'          as 'dracula-green'
	printf %b '\e]PA70fa9b'    # redefine 'bright-green'   as '#70fa9b'
	printf %b '\e]P3f1fa8c'    # redefine 'brown'          as 'dracula-yellow'
	printf %b '\e]PBffb86c'    # redefine 'bright-brown'   as 'dracula-orange'
	printf %b '\e]P4bd93f9'    # redefine 'blue'           as 'dracula-purple'
	printf %b '\e]PCcfa9ff'    # redefine 'bright-blue'    as '#cfa9ff'
	printf %b '\e]P5ff79c6'    # redefine 'magenta'        as 'dracula-pink'
	printf %b '\e]PDff88e8'    # redefine 'bright-magenta' as '#ff88e8'
	printf %b '\e]P68be9fd'    # redefine 'cyan'           as 'dracula-cyan'
	printf %b '\e]PE97e2ff'    # redefine 'bright-cyan'    as '#97e2ff'
	printf %b '\e]P7f8f8f2'    # redefine 'white'          as 'dracula-fg'

	clear

Also, after using zshrc I had a desire to see what my alias commands were, to help remember them (much like abbr in fish)… a couple of years back now, so maybe need a bit of fudging to make it work…

#-------- Global Alias {{{
globalias() {
  if [[ $LBUFFER =~ '[a-zA-Z0-9]+$' ]]; then
    zle _expand_alias
    zle expand-word
  fi
  zle self-insert
}
zle -N globalias
bindkey " " globalias                 # space key to expand globalalias
# bindkey "^ " magic-space            # control-space to bypass completion
bindkey "^[[Z" magic-space            # shift-tab to bypass completion
bindkey -M isearch " " magic-space    # normal space during searches

#}}}

Hmmmm not sure how to do that in bashrc… right now I have bind '\"\\C-e\": alias-expand-line' # Ctrl E a expands alias.

I also have the green/red status for my zsh prompt + thumb up/thumb down.

How did you get the folders / icons in the prompt?

I was going to try out this supposedly awesome bashrc script, so I pasted it in my bashrc, and nothing. After checking I find out my shell is fish :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

# ~/.bashrc
#

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
[[ $- != *i* ]] && return

alias ls='ls --color=auto'
alias grep='grep --color=auto'
PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '

!/bin/bash
iatest=$(expr index "$-" i)

You can type it directly in the prompt line, use the UTF code :
Ctrl+shift+u, release the keys, then type the symbol/icon code, f07c for the folder.

You can also create a variable :
FLD = $(echo '\uf07c')
and put $FLD in the prompt.

Cheat sheet :

Solution:

if [[ -d /new/path/for/bash ]]; then
    export PATH="$PATH:/new/path/for/bash"
fi

Environmental variables, nothing more.
Back in the days where we were mostly limited to terminals there was more..but that was a long time ago :0

In the function distribution and ver there does not seem to be any possibility to getting the Arch distro name and version.

Sorry. can t help ya.
Got it here.

I only briefly looked at this .bashrc. Be careful with functions like

# Copy and go to the directory
cpg ()
{
	if [ -d "$2" ];then
		cp $1 $2 && cd $2
	else
		cp $1 $2
	fi
}

# Move and go to the directory
mvg ()
{
	if [ -d "$2" ];then
		mv $1 $2 && cd $2
	else
		mv $1 $2
	fi
}

They will do wrong if files or folders contain white space.

Best practice is to put the positional parameter in quotes, e.g mv "$1" "$2" && cd "$2"

I keep my aliases and scripts completely separate in .bash_aliases, so it’s actually quite short :

(My .bash_aliases is hitting three pages long.. :laughing: )

I do it with zsh, but I would do the same with bash, and not only aliases :

source $HOME/.zsh/completion_settings.zsh
source $HOME/.zsh/aliases.zsh
source $HOME/.zsh/keybindings.zsh
#---------functions----------------------
fpath+=$HOME/.zsh/func
autoload ~/.zsh/func/*(:t)
#----------------------------------------
source $HOME/.zsh/command-not-found.zsh
source $HOME/.zsh/lscolors.zsh

I used just one alias with fish:

alias up='yay -Pw && yay -Syyuu && flatpak update && flatpak uninstall --unused'
#
# ~/.bashrc
#

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
[[ $- != *i* ]] && return

# don't put duplicate lines or lines starting with space in the history.
# See bash(1) for more options
HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth

# add date/time to history
HISTTIMEFORMAT="%F %T "

# append to the history file, don't overwrite it
shopt -s histappend

# for setting history length see HISTSIZE and HISTFILESIZE in bash(1)
HISTSIZE=1000
HISTFILESIZE=2000

# check the window size after each command and, if necessary,
# update the values of LINES and COLUMNS.
shopt -s checkwinsize

# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
if [ -d "$HOME/bin" ] ; then
    PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
fi

# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
if [ -d "$HOME/.local/bin" ] ; then
    PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
fi

# XDG
source ${HOME}/.config/user-dirs.dirs;

alias ls='ls --color=auto'
alias grep='grep --color=auto'
PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '

Definitely will copy some of these.

Currently I only have one alias for yt-dlp :sweat_smile:

Six config files to maintain for one shell is too much for me.
I have just one config file: ~/.my_shellrc
And I source this in every shell. be it bash or zsh, be it arch, debian, fedora or macos. It perfectly handles different shells (bash/zsh) and diffferent Linux brands or macos for the aliases and functions.

I can’t remember how to …linux anymore. Package managing was agi, agu, agr… now paci, yayi, upa… I’m searching the simplest commands if I must help someone :shushing_face:
