No, come on, this is some GNU FUD. For one thing, ls detects whether it outputs to a terminal or to a pipe and doesn't use ANSI colour if the output is to a pipe or a file, unless you *force* it to. Also GNU ls does not default to colouring it's output, but usually most people have an alias in which ls is aliased to ls --color=auto (which wouldn't colour to a pipe). So if you want to be *sure* you can: unalias ls or use /bin/ls, or use arg's lsx command. Cheers, [a] -- .
