Different command prompt for Admin shell

[Russ Seligman]

This may be a silly question... I just installed ComEmu on a new computer, and the command prompt for a cmd (Admin) shell is now "#", whereas on my old computer it was "$". The prompt for a regular cmd shell is still "$". Is this a change to indicate it's an Admin shell? Or did I change a setting someplace?

Definitely yes.

The # is used in Unix shells to indicate sudo mode.

ConEmu adopts the convention

Thanks, that's what I thought. Apparently my previous computer is using an older ConEmu version that didn't pick up that change yet.
