     NAME
	  Prompt - set the current CLI prompt

     SYNOPSIS
	  Prompt "NEW PROMPT"

     DESCRIPTION
	  Prompt sets a	new prompt for the CLI.	 If you	use Prompt
	  with no argument, it resets the cli prompt to	the default
	  prompt.  ARP's prompt	recognizes two special characters %N,
	  which	will be	displayed as the current process number, and
	  %p, which will be displayed as the current directory.	 If
	  you use %p in	a prompt string, successive CD will also
	  change the prompt.  The total	length of a prompt string,
	  including the	directory name,	is limited to 69 characters.
	  This is a CLI	limitation which ARP must currently struggle
	  against.

     EXAMPLE
	  Prompt "%N %p"

	  If the current directory is Workbench: this prompt string
	  will display

	  1 Workbench:>
