That's a fair question I suppose. First, this is a multiuser operating system and I want to fix the problem where it exists, so that it fixes it for all new accounts that I create. Secondly, I did. But the default values aliased to 'ls' do not just go away. Rather any customization I make just gets _added_ in with the other values initialized from the /etc/profile (or where ever) directory upon login. I realize I could just moving the /etc/profile directory off my partition, and maybe look at building my own, but I am really only interested in one particular problematic feature. One in which I have spent a fair amount of time already trying to discover how it is set up, and have not been able to solve. So, if there is anyone who can tell me what part of the bash scripts in /etc/profile or elsewhere are causing this funky behavior, I would very much appreciate it. > At 04:42 PM 3/4/2002 -0800, you wrote: > >Hello everyone: > > > >A long long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, 'ls' used to display > >directories and files in case sensitive order, prioritized by > >Directories, then directory names that start with capitals first. > > > >Now directories and files are sorted w/out respect to directory or > >file, and the first letter in the names are alphabetized w/out > >sensitivity to case. > > > >I guess not too many people liked this, but call me a geek, I found it > >kind of useful for organzing things. > > > >Can anyone help? > > > >Thanks so much, > > > >Steven > > > > > >Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > >Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com > > > o o o o o o o o > > > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > o _____________________________ > o _____ | | > .][__n_n_|DD[ ====_____ | | > >(________|__|_[_________]_|___________________________| > _/oo OOOOO oo` ooo ooo 'o!o!o o!o!o` > -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- > > >
