Is there a way to disable color coding in the 'ls' command permanently? It's giving me such lovely colors across my gnome-terminal but very unreadable with my sight. :-)
The only thing I've found so far is that it is driven by the ls_colors environment variable as seen by the 'dircolors' command. But that's where I am stumped. Typing dircolors or dircolors --print-database outputs all the color codes specified for each filetype, but not how to permanently disable it. I have tried 'ls --color=none' and 'ls --color=never' but both apparently are on a per command basis and don't stick when running ls again. Per the 'ls' manpages (which I don't think is true here.) "By default, color is not used to distinguish types of files. That is equivalent to using --color=none. Using the --color option without the optional WHEN argument is equivalent to using --color=always." Thanks in advance folks! -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
