Hi guys,
Is it possible to change the prompt in the top-level shell so that it displays the current time? At the moment it is: ?-
I want to change it to something like: 07:32 ?-
Would this be possible?

Hi Amoss, a couple of questions first: You mean the Ciao prompt, right? Also, are you using the emacs mode or are you running from a shell? (There are implications for the answer.) --Manuel

I think it's emacs mode - at least it is inside emacs if that is what you mean. I'm running 'emacs -f ciao'.

OK, we will give it some thought and check a couple of things: there is a way to do it, but it may confuse the environment and the debugger may or may not work (we will check). On the other hand it looks like something you may want to do and it should be not too hard to fix. --Manuel
