I read the RPROMPT is good for displaying time as well, it shows on the right side of the terminal or screen right?

I decided on bash, which I could add time by setting the environment variable, PS1="\s-\v-\t\$" though strange, the prompt does not allow me to type on the same line as the prompt, actually below it.

Also, what you have suggested also works.
