Greetings all! I recently put together a small program that you can use to simplify the process of customizing your bash prompt. I always got confused writing the escape sequences by hand, so I created this handy tool that converts a simplified string (what I call the "wizard") into the escape sequences needed by bash. Along with this conversion, a preview is also generated so you can see what your prompt will look like!
I wrote this in C# using monodevelop, so you must have the Mono and gtk-sharp libraries installed. Also, I'm fairly new to programming on Linux, so let me know if there are any problems with the program.
I've attatched a .deb of the program; you can also get the source from my Google Code SVN by using the following command:
svn checkout http://bunchafunk.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/bashpromptutil/ bashpromptutil
If you have any questions or comments, let me know!
Enjoy!
