It can be nice to have different colorĀ prompt on the terminal screen to differentiate different login. the following code simply set up PS1 to have yellow prompt on the terminal screen, which can be appended in your .bash_profile
# set our custom yellow prompt
PS1=’\[33[1;33m\]\u\[33[1;37m\]@\[33[1;33m\]\h\[33[1;37m\]:\[33[1;33m\]\W \[33[1;33m\]\$ \[33[0m\]‘
