This hint is wayyyyyyyyyy too complicated
Authored by: rae on Oct 30, '03 01:57:18PM
Here are much simpler instructions:

in csh/tcsh: setenv TERM dtterm
in bash/sh/ksh/zsh: export TERM=dtterm

I prefer dtterm to xterm-color. It doesn't really matter too much.

Now just use the "-G" flag. That's it! None of that other stuff is required:

% ls -G

Wow, eh?
