dumb & dangerous, man dircolors
Authored by: Anonymous on Mar 26, '02 03:14:00PM

I don't mean to sound like I'm flaming, but this is going to cause a lot of novice users grief, for something that's in the documentation.

I ask that when you submit tips, that you research thoroughly, especially when you're submitting hacks (don't get me wrong, hacks are cool).

Hex editing stuff is bad. Especially when the GNU ls documention plainly points to the dircolors stuff.

Just read the documentation (man ls & man dircolors, for those with the GNU ls installed).

RTFM, people.
