From article <17877@topaz.rutgers.edu}, by ron@topaz.rutgers.edu (Ron Natalie):
} This works with any real shell:
} 
}     PS1="."
} 
} (I don't recall who posted this, but it was one of the best answers I
} heard on it).
} 
} On the Korn shell (but not most Bourne shell PS1 is evaluated each time
} it is printed so you can:
} 
}     PS1="`pwd` "
} 
} -Ron

Doesn't work on mine (SysVR3 on Prime EXL316).
