Why .gz files are not colored with `ls --color=auto`?

2013-12-02 Thread Peng Yu
Hi,

On ubuntu, `ls --color=auto` colors .gz files. But it (the one from
macports) does not .gz files on Mac. Does anybody know how to make it
color .gz files as well on mac? Thanks.

Run `echo $LS_COLORS` on your Linux system. Arrange to have that same value
set on OS X. (Linux systems typically have a lot of strange stuff set up by
scripts in /etc/profile.d/*. I usually end up working around large chunks
of it, because the Linux distributions like to e.g. force their $PATH down
my throat at every opportunity. At one point I was setting $PATH in a zsh
precmd function, because that was the only way to stop (pre-enterprise)
Red Hat and SuSE from overriding it.)

According to the GNU manpage for ls (on Linux):

   Using  color  to  distinguish  file types is disabled both by
default and with --color=never.  With --color=auto, ls emits color codes
only when standard output is
   connected to a terminal.  The LS_COLORS environment variable can
change the settings.  Use the dircolors command to set it.

So you can use the dircolors command to set the LS_COLORS environment
variable so that ls will appropriately color files the way you want
them colored.

If you like the way Ubuntu does it, though, you can just copy the
LS_COLORS value from Ubuntu and put it in your Mac's .bashrc file:

swails@ubuntu $ echo $LS_COLORS
rs=0:di=01;34:ln=01;36:mh=00:pi=40;33:so=01;35:do=01;35:bd=40;33;01:cd=40;33;01:or=01;05;37;41:mi=01;05;37;41:su=37;41:sg=30;43:ca=30;41:tw=30;42:ow=34;42:st=37;44:ex=01;32:*.tar=01;31:*.tgz=01;31:*.arj=01;31:*.taz=01;31:*.lzh=01;31:*.lzma=01;31:*.tlz=01;31:*.txz=01;31:*.zip=01;31:*.z=01;31:*.Z=01;31:*.dz=01;31:*.gz=01;31:*.lz=01;31:*.xz=01;31:*.bz2=01;31:*.bz=01;31:*.tbz=01;31:*.tbz2=01;31:*.tz=01;31:*.deb=01;31:*.rpm=01;31:*.jar=01;31:*.war=01;31:*.ear=01;31:*.sar=01;31:*.rar=01;31:*.ace=01;31:*.zoo=01;31:*.cpio=01;31:*.7z=01;31:*.rz=01;31:*.jpg=01;35:*.jpeg=01;35:*.gif=01;35:*.bmp=01;35:*.pbm=01;35:*.pgm=01;35:*.ppm=01;35:*.tga=01;35:*.xbm=01;35:*.xpm=01;35:*.tif=01;35:*.tiff=01;35:*.png=01;35:*.svg=01;35:*.svgz=01;35:*.mng=01;35:*.pcx=01;35:*.mov=01;35:*.mpg=01;35:*.mpeg=01;35:*.m2v=01;35:*.mkv=01;35:*.webm=01;35:*.ogm=01;35:*.mp4=01;35:*.m4v=01;35:*.mp4v=01;35:*.vob=01;35:*.qt=01;35:*.nuv=01;35:*.wmv=01;35:*.asf=01;35:*.rm=01;35:*.rmvb=01;35:*.flc=01;35:*.avi=01;35:*.fli
