How do I change the OpenVMS system prompt?

OpenVMS FAQ -&- page 13
You can use the SET PROMPT command for this purpose. SET PROMPT sets the DCL prompt to the specified string. When you want to display variable information, you will need to establish a tie-in that provides the information to the SET PROMPT command as required. If you wish to display the default directory for instance, you will have to establish a tie between the SET DEFAULT command and the SET PROMPT commands, as there is no direct way to get the default directory as the DCL prompt.

How do I get a newline in my prompt?

Z-Shell Frequently-Asked Questions
You can place a literal newline in quotes, i.e. PROMPT="Hi Joe, what now?%# " If you have the bad taste to set the option cshjunkiequotes, which inhibits such behaviour, you will have to bracket this with unsetopt cshjunkiequotes and setopt cshjunkiequotes, or put it in your .zshrc before the option is set. In recent versions of zsh (not 3.0), there is a form of quoting which interprets print sequences like '\n' but otherwise acts like single quotes: surround the string with $'...'.

How can I set the prompt in the files section ?

news.answers/waffle-faq
Use the 'fileprom' static file parameter. Try 'fileprom : [$f] :' as an example. (it was undocumented before v1.65) If you use DSZ, it directly accesses the UART, and uses the FIFOs. By default, it turns them OFF when it finishes. Since Waffle doesn't reset the Fossil driver, it tries stuffing characters into a buffer that's turned off. Check your /waffle/system/dirs file. This error occurs if the user does not have access to the root file directory ('files:' in the static file).

How do I prevent the prompt overwriting output when there is no newline?

The problem is, for example, % echo -n foo % and the foo has been overwritten by the prompt %.
