Ubuntu Terminal - Removing Display of Current Path

If your like me, you sometimes navigate very deep down a directory tree, and get to a point where every command you write wraps or disappears. This is just plain annoying.

Then all you have to do is change the DISPLAY_OPTION to the number you want indicated by the comments. I have mine set to 3, which shows nothing at all, not event the current directory name.
