Dear Maintainer,
The commands depending on 'dircolor' ('ls', 'dir', etc) do not output colors
when you are using TERM=tmux or TERM=tmux-256color inside of tmux.
This happens because LS_COLORS is empty when using those terminfos, as
'dircolor'
hasn't populated it:
- Inside of tmux: 'TERM=screen-256color env | grep LS_COLORS' shows a populated
LS_COLORS.
- Inside of tmux: 'TERM=tmux-256color env | grep LS_COLORS' or 'TERM=tmux env |
grep LS_COLORS' shows LS_COLORS empty.
Another way to see it:
- Inside of tmux: 'TERM=screen-256color ls --color' outputs colors.
- Inside of tmux: TERM=tmux-256color ls --color' or 'TERM=tmux ls --color' does
not output colors.
As tmux and tmux-256colors are provided by the ncurses-term Debian package, it
would be good if they were supported by dircolor, by adding them to
"src/dircolors.hin".
I would submit a patch myself, but I'm not sure if this change is only relative
to Debian sources (does ncurses-term provide terminfos that may not be in other
distros?)
or the patch should go with upstream sources (and open another bug upstream
too).
