These are two different ls's and two different man pages. The one you are talking about is the ls(1) program in FreeBSD, while the other one is the ls-F builtin in tcsh, documented in the tcsh(1) man page. The poster suggested to setup ls as an alias for ls-F when using tcsh as the latter supports a wide range of colour-option while being faster than ls(1). ls(1) uses $LSCOLOR while ls-F uses $LS_COLOR. These have different syntax. It is also possible to use the GNU ls(1) which has a third way of defining its colorization.
