OSX Terminal Help (Weirdness)
Does anyone know why my OSX terminal is suddenly showing a number as the first character? It used to look (something) like:
#:~ michael$
now it shows stuff like this:
14:~ michael$
What the heck did I do?

Not sure, but to edit it you can change your .profile to set an environment variable called "PS1" with a set of escape sequences for whatever you want to see.
You're probably using bash.
