The typical grey-on-black theme can get boring. 111ere are a few changes that can be made to the command prompt to look a little friendlier. The prompt itself can be customised, which by default dis¬plays C:\ or the path you're currently on. The prompt can be changed by typing PROMPT followed by the parameters. PROMPT $ PSG will restore the prompt to the default one. Some of the parameters that can be used are as follows- SJ-Current date $T-Current time SP-Path SG-> S'/-Windows Version S Network path for mapped drives You can also have the text on the
title bar changed.



Enter the command TITLE in the command prompt, fol¬lowed by the text you want to display on the title bar. For example, ti tie %username% %date% %time% will display the currently logged in user name followed by the current date and time. If all this seems unnecessary. and you want a change of colour. the sim¬plest way out is to right-dick on the command prompt title bar and click on Properties. The fonts. colours and layout can be changed from here.
