if you want to customize the colors of ls output, edit the LS_COLORS env variable. details here : http://www.linux-sxs.org/housekeeping/lscolors.html you can place that in your .bashrc, and you can set very usefull reg exp, like *.log, ... ls --color | less = colorized output Cheers, Emmanuel
Re: [arch-general] A universal Operating System API - why don't we have it?
2009/12/20 Laurie Clark-Michalek bluepepp...@archlinux.us You cannot write an application for windows and expect it to work on Linux. Java? The success of the language is based around the fact that almost every computer has the runtime installed, regardless of operating system. Does that not count as a global API? Laurie I can't resist to quote awarenetwork (http://www.awarenetwork.org/usr/?q=11 ): saying java is good because it runs on all platforms is like saying anal sex is great because it works on all genders :-) Manu
