Attempt at properly escaping non-printing chars
This is supposed to be the equivalent of \[ \] in Bash PS1... >Note that since the command line editors try to figure out how long the >prompt is (so they know how far it is to edge of the screen), escape >codes in the prompt tend to mess things up. You can tell the shell not >to count certain sequences (such as escape codes) by prefixing your >prompt with a non-printing char- acter (such as control-A) followed by >a carriage return and then delimiting the escape codes with this >non-printing character. If you don't have any non-printing characters, >you're out of luck... BTW, don't blame me for this hack; it's in the >original ksh. <http://blog.0xpebbles.org/ksh-prompt-coloring-example>
