  colored ls in gnome-terminal works fine.
 
 It looks fine when I paste the filename and do that - subject to the
 issue that some fontsizes do not have the required glyphs.  In the
 largest fontsize, the glyphs before the - are boxes, but in the
 second largest fontsize, they're recognizable.  If that's what you
 are seeing, as far as I know that's a problem with the fonts available.

If it's as I stated above, that's probably unchanged (since it appears 
that fonts aren't being modified that much).


Generally, the effect would be worse for TrueType fonts, since their 
coverage tends to be poor, making applications rely upon fontsets (which 
aren't implemented in xterm).
