LS_COLORS
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
This is a collection of extension:color mappings, suitable to use as your
|
|
LS COLORS environment variable. Most of them use the extended color map,
|
|
described in the ECMA-48 document; in other words, you'll need a terminal
|
|
with capabilities of displaying 256 colors.
|
|
|
|
As of this writing, around 300 different filetypes/extensions is supported.
|
|
That's indeed a lot of extensions, but there's a lot more! Your help is greatly
|
|
appreciated.
|
|
|
|
Fork this project on github, add the extensions you are missing, and send a pull
|
|
request.
|
|
|
|
Some guidelines:
|
|
|
|
For files that usually ends up next to each other, like html, css and js,
|
|
try to pick colors that fits in nicely together. Filetypes with multiple
|
|
possible extensions, like htm and html, should have the same color.
|
|
|
|
To install and use this file, put something like this is your shell resource
|
|
file:
|
|
|
|
eval $( dircolors -b $HOME/LS_COLORS )
|
|
|
|
A quick way to install would be the following set of commands (assuming bash):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
wget https://raw.github.com/trapd00r/LS_COLORS/master/LS_COLORS -O $HOME/.dircolors
|
|
echo 'eval $(dircolors -b $HOME/.dircolors)' >> $HOME/.bashrc
|
|
. $HOME/.bashrc
|
|
```

ZSH SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTING

DEVELOPERS
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
There's a [library][1] I've written that lets you use various LS COLORS on
|
|
arbitary files and directories. A simple implementation can be found [here][2].
|
|
|
|
Using this, you can do
|
|
|
|
find $HOME -maxdepth 1 | ls_color
|
|
|
|
mpc search artist Laleh | ls_color
|
|
|
|
... and so on.
|
|
