  It would be easier for us to answer your question if you were to tell us
what shell you are using.

  It might also be useful for you to tell us *how* you want the prompt to
change, i.e. what information you want it to contain.  It is possible that
your shell has facilities for displaying the information built into the shell
prompt code.
