Does it? 10th edition Unix and Plan 9 rc both have ('% ' ' ') as the
default value of $prompt. At least that's how it's described in the
manual. None of the v8/9/10 tarballs in the archive contain rc code,
but some contain manual source, and those describe % prompts.
I've seen other references to ; (presumably ('; ' ' ')) as the
rc
prompt but I've never seen it in the wild. Does anyone here know what
the story is?
