Well, if you have both ~/.shrc and ~/.kshrc, then the easiest thing to do is
symlink ~/.shrc -> ~/.kshrc.

```
$ cd
$ mv .shrc .shrc.orig
$ ln -sv .kshrc .shrc
```

then read the file in ~/.kshrc as before.

If the file containing the prompt-setting'll be used by multiple users, then
move it out of the $HOME dirs. and into, say, /usr/local/etc/.
