I agree. Since the documented behavior of --color is to color the output, rather than (say) to send particular escape sequences to the output, failing to notice that the output cannot be colored (given that the costs of finding that out are low) is indeed a bug, whether documented or not. > It seems to me, then, that ls should never colorize in the case that > LS_COLORS is /set/, but has a null value. +1 -- Schlingt dreifach einen Kreis vom dies!
