Your eval quoting is slightly different than mine - maybe that's it? if [ -f "${HOME}/.dircolors" ] ; then eval "`dircolors -b ${HOME}/.dircolors`" alias ls='ls --color=auto -p --append-exe' # --color=auto colorize ls listing # -p add "/" to directory names # --append-exe append .exe if cygwin magic was needed alias grep='grep --color=auto' alias fgrep='fgrep --color=auto' alias egrep='egrep --color=auto' fi Regards, Lee -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
