Maybe a more universal solution is to print a log line with a hint when no explicit command is given. Something like: "Spawning new shell in user+network namespace". That at least tells the user what pasta did and works even in cases where the prompt does not contain the hostname.Hmm, sure, that's probably the clearest indication possible in the general case (minus the fact that it doesn't really help for pasta-in-pasta as Danish pointed out). On the other hand I would find it quite noisy, and the man page already explains what we're doing. Sure, one could run it with '-q', but then it's more typing just to avoid that noise. By the way, I'm (sloowly) reworking the website, and the namespacing aspect is something I plan to show in a separate diagram as well. Plus, I guess we wouldn't print that when a command is explicitly given, but then 'pasta' would print that message, while 'pasta -- sh' wouldn't, so things would quite easily look inconsistent. All in all, I have quite a preference against an additional message, but if more people on the list think it's a nice addition, then let's go for it. -- Stefano
