First :I saw it in linux and then there's a program called 'gnuls' in ports. It :looks really cool when you do: :gnuls --color=yes :Files print as usual and directories print in colour ;-) :I put ls as a symbolic link to gnuls, but every time I make world, the old :'ls' puts back ;-) : :Oleg Ogurok :oleg@ogurok.com :http://www.ogurok.com Color ls doesn't really belong in the base distribution, IMHO. It's simple enough to create a softlink to it in /usr/local/bin and then put /usr/local/bin in your path before /bin if you really want to have it as the 'default'. -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
