If possible could you create a small test case that illustrates the
behavior you are seeing that would show us both what you see and what
you want to see?
Thanks

Since color is involved it might not be totally clear, but with a
current version of 'ls' I'd get something like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ coreutils-6.9/src/ls -F --color ~/
Mail/ bin/ argetmhttp@ lib/ man/ share/
argetmUNWANTED@ argetmcompiler@ include/ mail/ personal/ work/
with only the directory entries colored according to $LS_COLOR, while
with an older version I would see:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ coreutils-5.97/src/ls -F --color ~/
Mail/ bin/ http@ lib/ man/ share/
UNWANTED@ compiler@ include/ mail/ personal/ work/
with everything colored according to the environment variable. The
output from version 5.97 is what I would expect. Assuming you're
viewing this with a monospace font, you should also see that the
columns don't line up correctly because of the extra "argetm" before
the links.
Let me know if you need something more (I know everyone loves a good
HTML encoded message once in a while).
