#       This is the default standard profile provided to a user.
#       They are expected to edit it to meet their own needs.

# Hello there and welcome to your .profile!  The .profile is a
# way for you to initialize and customize your UNIX environment.
#
# <-- first, this hash mark is a comment character.  Everything to the
#     right of the hash mark is ignored by the shell.  The shell we use
#     is the UNIX korn shell.
#
# I'd like to help you with a few notes about each part.
#
# This sets the environment variable "MAIL" for the location of your
# email file.  Typically email is spooled in /mail with the user's
# login (enviroment variable LOGNAME) for the file's name.
MAIL=/mail/${LOGNAME:?}

# Which editor?  Well, here is the standard and then the VIsual editor
# based off of ex (EXtended ed).  But since you might not know these,
# we will give you "pico" which is a very easy though limited text editor.
# If you want to get a list of editors available, type 'editors'.
#EDITOR=/bin/ed
#VISUAL=/usr/bin/vi
EDITOR=/usr/pkg/bin/pico

# Neat hacks for the David Korn's shell.
# standard prompt is the dollar sign.  The shell comment character
# if you can't tell is the pound (#) sign.  Uncomment out the follow
# and delete the line after it (or comment it out) if you would like
# the standard UNIX Korn shell prompt.
#
# Normal UNIX shell prompt
PS1="$ "
#
# Secondary UNIX shell prompt
PS2="> "
# This one gives you the return code for the last command executed
# and the present working directory
#PS1=['$?:${PWD#${PWD%/*/*/*}/}> '

# here is an example of a KSH function.  This one puts the current
# directory and hostname in your prompt
#host=`uname -n`

#chdir ()
#{
#       \cd ${*:-$HOME} && PS1="$host:$(pwd)> "
#}

#alias cd=chdir
#cd

# This tells the system what terminal you are using or emulating.  We do
# support a number of terminals and can infact support more.  Default TTY
# is typically a DEC vt100.
TERM=vt100

# stty (Set TTY) sets up your TTY.  Note, if you have problems with
# your backspace key, try changing the "erase '^h'" to "erase '^?'".
# If that still does not help, type stty erase at the shell prompt
# and then hit your backspace key.
stty erase '^?' echoe

# The following can be used for setting up the number of lines and
# columns you are using.  Most typical PC-COMM programs use 24 lines
# by 79 or 80 columns.  These settings (commented out) are typically
# used for TTYs .. experiment in sizing your own.
#LINES=25
#COLUMNS=80
#stty rows 25 cols 80

# You can enable command line editing based on your favourite editor by
# setting one of the following:
#set -o vi
#set -o emacs

# Now lets go ahead and make those enviroment variables active:
export MAIL PS1 PS2 TERM EDITOR VISUAL
