Re: How to display zsh is 32/64 bit?

[Daniel Lin <dlin.tw@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, Thomas, it works.
But, because the 'file' utility is not installed on my arch32-light
environment.
So,
I use a more stupid method:
create a symbol file (eg. /opt/arch32/etc/pacman32.conf)

if [ -f /etc/pacm32.conf ] ; then
  PS1="32 "  // in arch32
else
  PS1="64 " // in arch64
fi
