How can I change my unix prompt?

There is a line in the .cshrc file which says:
	set prompt="$myname@sas($cwd)% "
which is what gives you a % unix prompt.

On the other hand, you may want a prompt which says "I'm so cool". You can do that by editing the set prompt= line.

Note that the change will not go into effect until the next time you login. You can force it to take effect by typing the command:

	% source .cshrc
