A very basic change I like, is to modify the CI prompt to show the current
account and group in UNC format.  For example, I do this in Sysgen on our
host FRED as follows:
 
 sysgen> mi
 misc> sy ciprompt="\\FRED\!HPACCOUNT\!HPGROUP"
 misc> show sy
      SYSTEM command        parameter     VALUE
      -----------------    -----------    -----
....
      CI PROMPT            ciprompt       \\FRED\!HPACCOUNT\!HPGROUP
....
 
resulting in -
 \\FRED\VANGUARD\PUB:
 
Of course you could use a logon udc to do the same
  SETVAR HPCIPROMPT "\\FRED\!!HPACCOUNT\!!HPGROUP"
 
and swap all '\' for '/' if you are more unix/posix inclined :)
 
The important thing is that both methods behave properly when you do a
CHGGROUP, reflecting the current group you are in.  A HPHOSTNAME variable
would probably be *very* handy, esp if set in sysgen/nmmgr.
 
Cheers.
