To get only the hostname (\h is substituted with the hostname as you can read |
| 8 |
in `man bash`) ... |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
# export PS1=$PS1'\[\033]0;\h\007\]' |
| 11 |

Or for the ip you can try this evil command... ;) (it depends on |
| 13 |
sys-apps/iproute2 and will be overridden by $PS1 -- try in another terminal if |
| 14 |
you just typed the above command) ... |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
# export PROMPT_COMMAND="ip -o -4 addr show scope global | sed -r 's/.* ([12]?[0-9]?[0-9](\.[12]?[0-9]?[0-9]){3})\/.*/\x1b]0;\1\x7/'" |

(If anyone knows a better way to get the ip and only the ip I'm interested...) |
