The best I have found, using my Bash O'Reilly and my own
experimentation is  

PS1="\s-v\w"

I didn't find any difference in performance  between 'w' and 'W'.
I do see that the working directory is defined relative to PATH, which
I have no interest in changing.

If you want to see your PATH, the command is 'echo "$PATH"'.
