I personally dislike the coloring, since not all colors give a good contrast and for me it's unfriendly for my eyes. If I were you, I'd put a shell alias into your shells init file: alias ls '/usr/local/bin/gnuls --color=yes' But this is nothing for -current. And I think most of us dislike such things... -- Andreas Klemm http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/~andreas http://www.freebsd.org/~fsmp/SMP/SMP.html powered by Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
