You might want to use the colorls port instead. colorls is the normal
BSD ls with color support added. GNU ls has a somewhat different set
of options.

(Personally I think colored ls output is an abomination, and I rather
use alias ls='/bin/ls -F', but this cleary *is* a matter of personal
preference.)
