Hi,
I am using zsh and i trying to set "ls" colors like this. Files are
colored, but they do not follow the colors i set. Curiously enough,
during file completion they do.
Any idea?
I am using OS X Lion
Thanks in advance
--L
export LS_COLORS='no=00:fi=00:di=05;33:ln=01;36:pi=40;33:
so=01;35:do=01;35:bd=40;33;01:cd=40;33;01r=40;31 ;01:ex=01;32.tar
if ls --color &>/dev/null; then
LS_OPTIONS="--color" # gnu (linux)
else
LS_OPTIONS="-G" # mac
fi
export LS_OPTIONS
# ls aliases
alias ls='ls $LS_OPTIONS -F'

LS_COLORS works during file completion only because Zsh uses that
variable. The external utility `ls` generally has LS_COLORS only on GNU
systems, which doesn't include OSX.
osx-server$ man ls | grep -c LS_COLORS
0
linux-box$ man ls | grep -c LS_COLORS
1

Best,
Ben

You need to set LSCOLORS for Mac OS X Lion. Check out the LSCOLORS / LS_COLORS converter here: http://geoff.greer.fm/lscolors/

another alternative is to install gnu ls. one way to do this is install
fink, then invoke installation of gnu ls.

Easier than Fink is to just install it from Rudix:
