This is cool.. but how do I undo this?


You can set your prompt to whatever you want by running `export PS1=...`. What the default is depends on which version of unix you're running. Often, you can get your original prompt back by running `source ~/.bashrc`.

Barring that, logging out and back in will definitely fix it, as long as you didn't put it in one of your bash config files.
