I just do a PS1 in my .zshrc.  Of course, the first time I ran the man
page, I misunderstood and my prompt looked like

${PWD}%

Ooops.

Anyway, I have a page that goes into it.

There's a few differences in syntax, and to be even nicer I tell ya
where to go in the man page to find it.  :)

Giles: I need you to take Spike for a few days. 
Xander: What? 
Spike: What? 
Anya: What? 
Spike: I'm not stayin' with him. 
Giles: I have a friend who's coming to town, and I'd like us to 
be alone. 
Anya: Oh, you mean an orgasm friend? 
Giles: Yes, that's exactly the most appalling thing you could 
have said.
