\[Hey,

I ran a portupgrade yesterday, and noticed that bash got updated, 
allthough I dislike the way it is visible in my shells. Normally I 
whould have

frank@FStaals$

but this seems to have changed when I ran portupgrade, currently it is 
like this:

[frank@FStaals ~]$ when I'm in my homedir. The problem is when entering 
a long path, or a directory which hasn't been renamed properly yet, for 
example when I'm in ~/tmp/\[Nipponsei\]\ Shakugan\ no\ Shana\ Original\ 
Sound\ Track my shell becomes:

frank@FStaals ~/tmp/\[Nipponsei\]\ Shakugan\ no\ Shana\ Original\ Sound\ 
Track]$

which leaves absolutely no place on the line for my commands, which I 
think is very anoying. I read the man and looked up if I could find 
something in .bashrc but I didn't realy know what to look for. So my 
question is; how can I set bash so it will be visible in the old way ( 
frank@FStaals$ ) ?

I'm running 5-Stable with bash-3.1.10 ( the old view was with 3.0.16_1 )

Thanks in advance
