This is what I use. It's not super fancy, but it shows the information I need pretty compactly.

export PS1='$(test $? -eq 0 || echo ❌)\[\e[1;32m\]\u\[\e[00m\]@\[\e[0;32m\]\h\[\e[1;34m\]\w\[\e[00m\]\$ '

This trick means my prompts are always placed to the left even when a command ends without a newline:

PROMPT_COMMAND='printf "%%%$((COLUMNS-1))s\\r"'

@CyReVolt Those were the days. I remember writing a Twitter to WAP gateway (presenting WML), so I could check it on my Nokia dumbphone :)

Det var også en tid hvor computere stod stille, og man ikke havde brug for at kunne sige "på de her wifi netværk stoler jeg på DNS serveren, men på resten skal du bruge censurfridns over DoT, og PS. hvis min VPN til arbejdet er oppe, så skal du spørge den DNS server du får fra OpenVPN, men kun de her domæner" ;)

Hey you. Do you like low level programming? would you like to contribute to a large and well established project? Because I'm always looking to help new contributors getting started on GDB! It uses C++, but you may also end up needing to remove abstraction layers, so there's tons of things not-C++ to think about, if you want to.

I know that contributing to the GNU Debugger may sound like it's something that would be incredibly hard, or that you need ungodly amounts of knowledge to improve, because that's literally how I felt before sending my first patch, but the truth is, the project was developed by people (humans and otherwise), so silly bugs will abound, and simple oversights will need correcting. There is stuff for every level of programmer to do, from "I've worked on the kernel for 20 years" to "this is my 1st year in college and I'm not scared of large projects"

And here's the kicker, I want more contributors to the GDB project. So, if you are interested in this at all, you can hit me up and I will do my best to help you get setup to contribute (from compiling locally, to setting up git-send-email, running tests) and then help you understand the bugs, the code, and how to make a good commit message (to GDB's standards anyway). I've literally done code-walks with other mentees in the past, I eager to share as much of my experience as you would like to have! and I do my best to be ADHD/autistic friendly, since I'm AuDHD myself and would have really loved a mentor that did that for me in the past...

So... yeah, don't be afraid to reach out!

EDIT: Hi everyone! I made a poll on why people don't contribute, please vote and share here:

Hi Fedi verse, it is I the GDB fops again! I want to collect data about why people aren't contributing to GDB. If you haven't contributed to GDB, please take a moment to vote and boost for reach. This poll accepts multiple answers, but please only vote on the ones that would actually get you to try to contribute if they were changed This data will be used to understand and hopefully figure out ways to improve the project for people who would like to participate. Feel free to expand on your answer! Why have you not contributed? (📊) RE: Hey you. Do you like low level programming? would you like to contribute to a large and well established project?

@maiathecyberwitch Jeg så engang et toot noget i stil med "Always remember: There is nothing wrong with Mondays. What you hate is capitalism". Det tænker jeg tit på..
@tykling Heads up! I'd like to join :)
@tykling ..og annoncerer det her, ikke? :)
Ursula Le Guin: “A child free from the guilt of ownership and the burden of economic competition will grow up with the will to do what needs doing and the capacity for joy in doing it. It is useless work that darkens the heart. The delight of the nursing mother, of the scholar, of the successful hunter, of the good cook, of the skilful maker, of anyone doing needed work and doing it well, - this durable joy is perhaps the deepest source of human affection and of sociality as a whole.”
@jarkko That's right. Then you might have to configure your kernel with a built-in cmdline though.
