Also see man ls "DISPLAY COLORIZATION", which says:
You can override the default colors by defining the envi-

The current version of ls handles colors differently than the
version I used in Slackware.

Hi,
Is it possible to create a file system on a tape drive ( like on
mainframes) and use it as a disk? I know it is very slow, but is it
possible?
If not, is it possible to have several files on one tape and how to
access them?
Any input is appreciated.
Thank you all
ZORO

Is it possible to make linux print to an appletalk printer? I see papd
can spool from appletalk to an lp printer. Can it work the other way?
I want to print to an HP 6MP hooked up via a Jet Direct Plus to 10bT
ethernet. It does NOT have a specific IP address assigned to it -- I
only have 6 IPs

Hi,
I'm trolling for ideas and guidance. I'm trying to help my parents
enter the electronic age. They basically know nothing about computers.
They're 80 and I'm stubborn. This means that things have to be super easy
for them, and I'm hoping to avoid windoze.
So far I have set u

Friends, a question:
I am trying to install Debian 1.3 on my old IBM PS/1 Consultant
