Folks, please hold your tone. You are both right. With XFREE 3.2, the colorization of xterm is not active by default. One would not notice this unless one has removed the previously released (and now obsolete) xterm-color package. So, if the problem was "I do get color in ls on the console but not in xterms", then the howto colorize the new xterm is appropriate. Otherwise the first solution offered by William is needed.
Thanks. Syrus. P.S. I was the author of the now obsolete color-ls package. :-) ---------------------------------------------------------- Syrus Nemat-Nasser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> UCSD Physics Dept. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
