Thanks, even works in bash, but yeah, I found that through dircolors -p, didn't even need to go online. >From the manpage it wasn't clear what arguments GREP_COLOR took. I started with GREP_COLOR=brown :-) which didn't work. Then started trying different numbers, which seemed to miss out on a few colours, so as a thought I tried "man -k colour" ... nothing ... ... Arrrgh, of course, "man -k color" ... yes! dircolors. But, for some reason because "ls" didn't show any yellow I didn't click about the "1;" :-(, also the semi colon put me off, I mean a '1;' in a script could be problematic? -- Chris. ====== If you are not subscribed, ask to be CC'd as the Policy of this list is to reply to the list only. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
