This is best done with a logon UDC. What we have done is to include the following line in our system logon UDC: setvar hpprompt "!'enh_hb'UniSuper:!!hpcwd:!'enh_off' " enh_hb is a variable containing an escape sequence for half-bright display and enh_off turns off display enhancements. This is placed very early in the file so that the prompt is changed quickly.
