Hello,

how can I customize the bash/ terminal promt  always

[root@arthur Desktop]#

to

[root@arthur /home/user41/Desktop]#

or root@arthur:/home/user41/Desktop#

?

I waste tons of concentration or time to type dozends times "pwd" only 
to detect that I am in the right user directory.

I know that its set in /etc/bashrc, but I don't understand how to change.

Who knows it?
