It seems that they are not the same in my case.

I'll probably do this.

Thanks.

Setting the style to an empty string gives you the internal defaults,
which should eb the same as the defaults for GNU ls (if we've found
that out correctly).

The solution is to transfer the $LS_COLORS from the Linux box to the
BSD box. Unless you want to install the whole GNU fileutils suite
there, as suggested by others.

Sorry if my initial mail was unclear, but I wasn't
talking about colored ls output - I was talking about
a case when completing, e.g.,

root@bsd:~> vi <TAB>
movie.avi   stuff.zip   test_dir   test.sh

and in that case the colors differ. (in the example
above, directory test_dir would be red, test.sh green
and other files uncolored).

This is part of fileutils, along with rm,mv,ln,ls etc.

This is a zsh command...
/usr/share/zsh/4.0.4/functions/Misc/colors

and if you're not using GNU ls, the option for color ls may not exist,
or may be different.

in FreeBSD, the option is '-G', and the environment variable is
"LSCOLORS".

i have stuff like this in my .zshrc.

case $(uname) in
        Linux)
        LS_COLORS="di=33;4:ln=35;4:ex=31:*.rpm=32:*.gz=34:*.tar=34:*.tgz=36:*.bz 2=36:*.deb=34"
        alias ls='ls -F --color'
        export LS_COLORS
        ;;
        FreeBSD)
        LSCOLORS="3x5x2x3x1x464301060203"
        alias ls='ls -GF'
        export LS_COLORS
        ;;
        OpenBSD|NetBSD|Darwin)
        alias ls='ls -F'
        ;;
[ etc..... ]

dircolors is part of the GNU fileutils suite see:

http://www.gnu.org/directory/fileutils.html

and in my .zshrc in have

eval `dircolors ~/.dir_colors`

and

alias ls='ls --color=auto'

That's likely because you don't have GNU fileutils.

Unforunately no such commands are available.

Try putting

eval `dircolors`
colors


in your .zshrc

completion colors differ on BSD/Linux

[Jukka Lehti]

Hi,

I have in my ~/.zshrc following line:

zstyle ':completion:*:default' list-colors
"${(s.:.)LS_COLORS}"

On a Linux, completion colors match nicely to colors
of GNU ls. But on *BSD, directories are red and tar/gz
are uncolored. Sym links and executables same as on
Linux. On Linux LS_COLORS has tons of definitions, on
*BSD it is empty. Replacing "${(s.:.)LS_COLORS}" with
'' doesn't help. The problem exists on xterm and on
console.

Any ideas what's going on here?
