This is what burnt you: > setenv CLICOLOR_FORCE 1 That's an incredibly dangerous setting; whoever suggested making it a system-wide default is an idiot. See "man ls": CLICOLOR_FORCE Color sequences are normally disabled if the output isn't directed to a terminal. This can be overridden by set- ting this flag. The TERM variable still needs to refer- ence a color capable terminal however otherwise it is not possible to determine which color sequences to use. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
