prompt

The visual format of the prompt is governed by the PROMPT environment variable. By default, it is set to $P$G, where $P represents the current drive and path, and $G represents the > character.

To temporarily modify the prompt layout in your current session:

prompt $t $p$g

Common special codes include:

• $P: Current drive and path
• $G: > symbol
• $N: Current drive letter
• $T: Current system time
• $D: Current system date
• $+: Displays plus signs (+) corresponding to the depth of the PUSHD directory stack
