How do I customize the bash prompt

What’s the haiku equivalent to .bashrc file so I can customize my prompt or system paths

You can use :

/boot/system/settings/etc/profile
/boot/home/config/settings/profile

These are the ones I have identified when I wrote the article on Haiku Insider :wink:

Is also a way to set number of file descriptors per app somewhere in configs? It’s 512 by default. Would ulimit -Sn 4096 work from /boot/home/config/settings/profile?
