Then you can't. Except if you install colorls (from packages) and setup
a shell alias appropriately. Or use GNU ls (either the full fileutils
package, or the gnuls package), and alias ls=gls.

You can edit /etc/profile on OpenBSD too. Or your own .profile.

Right.

For locate, the simplest thing would be running /etc/weekly manually (as
root: cd /; sh /etc/weekly) or wait until it runs by itself (Saturday,
3:30am).
