I bought a 21 inch 1080p Viewsonic monitor from a thrift store just the other day for $6. I got it just for this use case.
I had a spare for this purpose up until about a month ago when the backlight went out on one of my daily drivers.
Also, a couple of days ago I got a pretty nice steelcase apex 3 keyboard with RGB lights for $5.
Mine shows the full path and a new line for commands.
It will also print the exit code of the last command in red above the prompt, if the exit code is not 0.
PS1='$(ec=“$?”; if [ $ec -gt 0 ]; then echo -e “\n”[\e[91m]“exit code: $ec”[\e[0m]; fi)\n[\e[92m]\u[\e[38;5;213m]@[\e[38;5;39m]\h[\e[0m]:$PWD\n$ ’
