RE: letters of the path have returned in numbers? Any idea why?


Common problem when you tweak your environment.  You changed /bin/sh 
to a symbolic link to /bin/bash.  Updating your packages reinstituted
the /bin/sh binary.  /bin/sh != /bin/bash.  /bin/sh is ash.

Subject: letters of the path have returned in numbers? Any idea why?


Hi,
Before I was working only with Xfree86 and it was responding fine at 
least on the windows open.
Now that I added some more packages such as rxvt etc., my paths in the 
directories when I startx
are becoming nonsense: here is an example : \033[32m\]\u@ and more 
numbers. Does anybody has
a suggestion how to revert this process in original letters of the path?
TIA,
Aldi
