ls = ls --color=tty
Doesanybody know where this alias is defied for root user and if the color can be chaned for the different file types??
Thanks |
mine get's defined in /etc/profile.d/color_ls.sh
that's under mandrake 8.1. as for chanign them, look at 'man dircolors' |
might be different on your box, but on my slackware system, my ls alias is defined in my /root/.bashrc file. and my colors are defined in /etc/DIR_COLORS.
it's different with different distros though. |
You want the /etc/dir_colors file. The following is my default /etc/dir_colors:
# Configuration file for the color ls utility # This file goes in the /etc directory, and must be world readable. # You can copy this file to .dir_colors in your $HOME directory to override # the system defaults. # COLOR needs one of these arguments: 'tty' colorizes output to ttys, but not # pipes. 'all' adds color characters to all output. 'none' shuts colorization # off. COLOR tty # Extra command line options for ls go here. # Basically these ones are: # -F = show '/' for dirs, '*' for executables, etc. # -T 0 = don't trust tab spacing when formatting ls output. OPTIONS -F -T 0 # Below, there should be one TERM entry for each termtype that is colorizable TERM linux TERM console TERM con132x25 TERM con132x30 TERM con132x43 TERM con132x60 TERM con80x25 TERM con80x28 TERM con80x30 TERM con80x43 TERM con80x50 TERM con80x60 TERM cons25 TERM xterm TERM rxvt TERM xterm-color TERM color-xterm TERM vt100 TERM dtterm TERM color_xterm # EIGHTBIT, followed by '1' for on, '0' for off.

Sorry, I'm using Red Hat 7.1
I'm using Red Hat 7.1 ...
|
FYI, this is on a RedHat 7.2 system.
|
I Found the /etc/DIR_COLOR file but
Where is this alias set in Red Hat 7.1???
I have looked under /root, /etc still don't see it?? |
I don't know if it does, but its run from a shell script calld /etc/profile.d/colorls.sh which I assume you can create if it doesn't exist. Here's the script:
# color-ls initialization COLORS=/etc/DIR_COLORS eval `dircolors --sh /etc/DIR_COLORS` [ -f "$HOME/.dircolors" ] && eval `dircolors --sh $HOME/.dircolors` && COLORS=$HOME/.dircolors [ -f "$HOME/.dir_colors" ] && eval `dircolors --sh $HOME/.dir_colors` && COLORS=$HOME/.dir_colors if echo $SHELL |grep bash 2>&1 >/dev/null; then # aliases are bash only if ! egrep -qi "^COLOR.*none" $COLORS &>/dev/null; then alias ll='ls -l --color=tty' alias l.='ls -d .[a-zA-Z]* --color=tty' alias ls='ls --color=tty' else alias ll='ls -l' alias l.='ls -d .[a-zA-Z]*' fi fi Now if you put that in the file 'colorls.sh' in /etc/profile.d/ and put the dir_colors file in your home directory and name it .dir_colors it should work. You can also put dir_colors in /etc/ so that there are default colors for everyone and the one in your home directory can be customized for just you. |
Thanks.
I now know where the script is and the color setup file is. Man this site is good!!!!!:D
/etc/profile.d/colorls.sh (script file) /etc/DIR_COLORS (color de file) Thanks again!!!! |
