An Embarrassing Progblem

Show all headers | View raw

I'm embarrassed to admit it. but I am completely confused.

Somehow, I don't know how I managed to reset my bash user prompt. Rather 
than the default user prompt '\u@h >', it has morphed to (p4env).

I have found plenty of Google results about correcting thei promled, 
and, indeed export PS1='\u@\h > ' restores the prompt - that is, until I 
close that terminal.  The next time I open a terminal the prompt is back 
to (p4env).

For my sanity, I can]t seem to figure out where and how to make the 
change permanent.

As I said, I'm very embarrassed about this and really need help.

Thanks in advance,
