Call for bash prompts

I'm helping Rob Griffiths update his Mac OS X Hints book for Panther, and
one of the hints is about customizing the shell prompt. Naturally, the
Jaguar edition uses tcsh, so I'm updating this for bash. (We've made the
decision to assume that users are working with bash.)

I'm looking for a long, cool, complex, multi-line prompt to use as an
example. Anyone have one they want to contribute? The "winning" prompt will
have the contributor's name in the book.

Thanks!
