I can't tell if this is supposed to be a parody or not, there are clues both ways; for example: The number of characters to add to your .profile to import, is the same length as the PS1 export line; or that there is a unit test...at all, haha
or just add `export PS1='--> '` to the bottom of .bashrc and if you don't like it, remove the export. it does suck a little less, but it sucks with much less. the stuff of self-taught digital nomads.
