Re: ls output with color?

[herbert langhans <w3%langhans.com.pl@localhost>]

I bet nobody would ever dare to colorize the (almost) last really 
pure Unix. It anyway won't work with all the different systems NetBSD 
runs on.

Though - I use colorls now on my server. Just to see the directories
better, it looks good in white and green.

But colors by default should rather be left to the penguins, I agree!
