base path on x window
Sorry that I am not good at UNIX. Please show me how to make UNIX saver name and base path to show on shell prompt. Example:

Currently, my shell prompt is:
$

I want it to be shown as

username@savername: /u01/app/oracle >

/u01/app/oracle is my user base path, I am in korne shell. Thanks.
