Hi, I'd like to propose to introduction -G (colorized output) option to ls(1), which is compatible to FreeBSD and macOS:
http://www.netbsd.org/~rin/colorls-20190215.patch I know that we already have misc/colorls in pkgsrc. In the era of statically-linked /bin, pulling terminfo stuff into /bin/ls would require some overhead. However, it increase only < 4KB of binary size for dynamically-linked /bin/ls on m68k, for example. Also, when SMALLPROG is defined, colorized output is completely disabled; no additional space is required for install media. Thanks, rin
