John is definitely right about the "$" and bugs, even his sed style is
better (Thanks!).  But I just thought about another way you *could* do
it using the (new :-) "$" feature assuming your sed hold buffer is big
enough (likely, it won't be :-( :-( :-().  But this script is the
simplest so far, so... 

  sed -n -e 'H;${;x;s@^\(.\)\(.*\)@\2\1@;s@PROMPT>\n>\n<\n@@g;s@\n$@@;p;}'
