Color prompt with file numbers does not work anymore
I have used this color prompt on my servers for long time, in file ~\.bashrc
It gives a prompt like this
The numbers [5:2] tells me there are 5 normal files and 2 hidden.
For some reason this does not work anymore when I change directory. I am not sure when this has stopped working. If run the PS1 variable manually, it updates the file number, but this should go automatically.
Anyone could test this as see if it works or not.
I do run my server on Ubuntu 32 and 64 bits 12.04
