This is a port of the Slackware Linux colorized `ls' program, which is, in turn, adapted from the `ls' program that comes with the GNU `fileutils' package. It is based on GNU fileutils version 3.12. The port installs four programs: `linuxls', `dir', `vdir' and `dircolors'. It also installs man pages for `linuxls' and `dircolors'. The programs are compatible with their counterparts in Slackware Linux releases. Standard xterm prior to XFree86 3.1.2B doesn't know about colors, so you should use color_xterm or kterm (available from the ports collection) if you are using older versions of XFree86. NOTES: 1. This port modifies the GNU `fileutils' make procedure (as originally patched for Linux) so that it installs only programs and man pages listed above. 2. Unlike the Slackware Linux version, this port installs `ls' as `linuxls' so it won't conflict with the normal BSD `ls' program or the BSD `colorls' program (the latter available from pkgsrc). 3. This colorized `ls' program is not the same as the `colorls' program available from pkgsrc. Brian Clapper 07 January 1996
