Sorry for the delay, my monitor died last night! :-(
But this new 17" monitor is Great!!
Have you looked at your .dircolors file? Do you have one?
(dircolors --print-database > .dircolors)
I never had a problem with ls showing colors, Will. I have a problem
with the 'Blink' option not working when I tell it to have a
non-existent symlink blink red! I have had that set up since 94-95
IIRC, in Slackware and SuSe. I no longer have any Slink systems
around but I thought it worked there as well.
No worries tho, I was able to get it to do Red on White and that will
have to do, for now. If I find time I will go get the source and see
what is umm.. messed up.
Man, why did I wait so long to get a big monitor? I am spoiled now!!
