I set the PS1 to "\t@desk~>" in ~/.bashrc and the it works well in
emacs shell mode for a long time until some days ago. I may updated
some packages related to emacs21, but I do not think I changed
the configurations. Now the problem is the shell prompt in emacs shell
mode looks like this:

^[]0;USER NAME /the/current/working/directory/^G12:34:25@desk~>

This prompt is very annoying, how can I change it back to
"12:34:25@desk~> "?

By reading the bash manual. In GNU Emacs' *shell* buffer neither the  
prompt nor ls should emit ^[ANSI escape sequences for (colour)  
effects. In *terminal* buffer this might work better ...

In ~/.emacs_bash you can set a prompt that is only used in GNU Emacs'  
*shell* buffer (*terminal* does not read ~/.emacs_bash).

You *can* have ANSI colour in shell buffers with 

M-x ansi-color-for-comint-mode-on RET

or (ansi-color-for-comint-mode-on) in .emacs.

I thinks that this works in Emacs 21 as well as Emacs 22.
