Yes, sure.  It was a little mess with cleaning up .bashrc all the time;)
I'll look to get it up to the server this weekend.

Someone who is using tcsh and zsh needs to assist me in testing since
I'm not using these two (yet).

If I get it right now it is still not possible to get two extensions at
the same time?  So if I want to have a 'bash Prompt Here' (cmd shell) and
a 'rxvt Prompt Here' I'll need two different startup files?
