Years ago in DOS I went through a fancy prompt phase. It got really bad :-)
For example, one prompt put a blue stripe permanently along the top of
the screen that showed current directory, time, and whatever other junk
would fit, with a simple gold prompt mark in the main scrolling part.

Now in my second newbiehood I'm wondering, can I do that sort of stuff
with FreeBSD? I can't find any clues in the sh or bash man pages (only
basic useful stuff, nothing senseless, fun, or psychadelic) so maybe
there's something else to learn?
