Dan,

	Here is another idea. It is known to work in the BSD 4.3 environment.
It MUST be put in your .profile.  Once it has been setup (in .profile and
.profile executed as if at login time), use "c" instead of "cd".

c()
{
 case $# in
    1) cd $1;;
    *) cd $HOME;;
 esac
 PS1=`pwd`"> ";
}
c

Example if `pwd` is /usr/sys, prompt will be "/usr/sys> ".
