odd bash wrapping due to ansi codes

[Robert Praetorius]

     I've found that bash is happier when I wrap ANSI (or ANSIesque) 
escape and control sequences inside \[ . . . \].  To quote from the 
bash man page:

          \[   begin a sequence of non-printing characters, which
               could be used to embed a terminal control sequence
               into the prompt
          \]   end a sequence of non-printing characters
