Description:
This is a simple hack to the FreeBSD /bin/ls to use ANSI sequences to display file attributes in color. There is a -G flag (somewhat similar to the -F flag). Take a look at the man page for details. The program is called "colorls" and installs itself in /usr/local/bin. The file patches/patch-aa is the diffs from the 3.0-stable (as of 2000/06/01) /usr/src/bin/ls directory. Also, note that you need a "color-capable" terminal to enable colorls -- this means you should set your TERM to "xterm-color" or "kterm-color" when using normal xterm or kterm, not "xterm" or "kterm" (which termcap doesn't know that are color-capable).
