However I'm pretty sure that color ls in freebsd only works with xterm-color
(as far as the various xterm termcaps go).  I am pretty sure the person who
sent the original message was using freebsd.  I use xterm as my termcap on
Linux machines (even if I'm connecting from my workstations which are both
freebsd) but i use xterm-color in freebsd.  does anyone know for sure that
you can get the xterm-xfree86 termcap working on *bsd and that color ls still
works with it?
