[FAQ] Before fileutils 3.13, you need the color-ls package, and then you just need eval `dircolors`.
After fileutils-3.13: With the integration of color-ls directly into the fileutils package, a few things have changed. dircolors no longer sets up aliases or shell scripts to colorize ls, dir, and vdir. Here is an excerpt from a .bashrc which sets up aliases after running dircolors: # set up color-ls eval `dircolors /home/syrus/.dir_colors` alias d='ls -F --color=auto' alias v='ls -l --color=auto' alias vdir='ls -l --color=auto' alias dir='ls -F --color=auto' Note that color=tty has been changed to color=auto. See the documentation for other change information.
