I think that's something we can live with. Colorizing is already significant overhead, and if performance is important, don't do it: /usr$ time ls --color=yes -R > /dev/null real 0m23.871s user 0m1.315s sys 0m22.513s /usr$ time ls --color=no -R > /dev/null real 0m3.707s user 0m0.636s sys 0m3.060s (Actually average of three runs, after discarding one.) -- Matthew Miller <mat...@mattdm.org> Senior Systems Architect -- Instructional & Research Computing Services Harvard School of Engineering & Applied Sciences -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
