Could anybody help w/ > this?? It would be greatly appreciated! My 2c guess is that you want something like /usr/bin/dircolors which sets the various colours used when you invoke ls. FWIW, I have various xterm scripts in /usr/local/bin for when I want to set the basic colours for my xterms. e.g #! /bin/sh exec xterm -fg black -bg LightGrey -fa mono -fs 16 & xt-16-lg (END)
