If the previous command's exit code was nonzero, the exit code is displayed inside square brackets in bold and red at the beginning of the bash command prompt. This gives a visual indicator of when a process has silently failed. The file needs to be alphabetically later than vte.sh, since that script in /etc/profile.d overwrites PROMPT_COMMAND.

If the previous command's exit code was nonzero, the exit code is displayed inside square brackets in bold and red at the beginning of the bash command prompt. This gives a visual indicator of when a process has silently failed, which is particularly useful for run0 given that it currently will silently fail with exit code 203 for commands where it runs into problems with SELinux.
