How does one make Eterm use the three font colors ? I mean, files one color, directories another & executables another...

Just wondering if anyone knows....

I guess I should post this as well - I edited the .bashrc file and it works for root, just not for the user(s)...

Thanks....

Put this in the end of /etc/profile:


alias ls='ls --color'

You can also add/change the colors for files in /etc/DIR_COLORS (or maybe it was /etc/DIRCOLORS, can't remember). It should be pretty self-explanatory, and it is a very nice feature of ls http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/wink.gif
