I have got the same problem with 'more' and 'less' too.
How did you configure 'ls' for displaying colors when piping to 'more' ?
Thank you.

Subject: less and color
----------------- Memo - Message ------------------
I have setup the ls command to use the display color option using an
alias. It works fine. Colors are also displayed nicely when piping
ls stdout to the more command. I want to use less instead of
more. However, when piping ls stdout to the less command, less displays
the directory listing in b/w and with control characters (escape seq with
hex numbers?) around the filenames instead of just using the correct
colors.
Has anyone out there fixed this problem? I have tried changing the
LESSCHARSET env. variable with no luck. Advice or tips would be
appreciated. I should mention that I am using the console with
$TERM=linux.
