Hi there,

I'm new to unix, so excuse me if I've missed something obvious. 
I have an issue related to most (the pager) I'd like to resolve. 
It doesn't appear to be a problem in most itself, so I'm asking 
here.

relevant env. vars:
PAGER=most
CLICOLOR=1
CLICOLOR_FORCE=1

The problem is this: ls -la | most doesn't display the entries 
colorized, but instead displays the color codes as part of the 
text, i. e.:

drwxr-xr-x  6 cynic  cynic    1024 Jun 24 22:42 ^[[34m.^[[39;49m

However, $ man anything displays the man page properly colorized,
which suggests there's something wrong with the way ls sends the 
codes, because most otherwise doesn't have problems with colors...

Am I right? If so, what can I do to get this to work as expected?
Or should I mail the author of most with a bug report?

TIA
