Anyone that would like to remove
the annoying Blue Banner in OS/2,

simply remove the $i from the PROMPT environment variable.


The blue banner is the HELP banner that says
"OS/2 Ctrl-Esc=Task Manager  type help=help"
 
 type help=help <------+
                       |
                       |
 (Does that make any sense?)
