.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I've got a nice PS1 prompt that I want to only be used when user 'gatty' uses su for root.
PS1='[e[32m]#[e[37m] '
When other users like 'george' etc login, I want them to get the standard PS1 instead of 'gattys'.
Is this possible, how would I go about doing this?
Thanks!
