A few notes on this. First, I'd suggest looking at iTerm instead of
terminal:
http://iterm.sourceforge.net/
it seems to be a vastly better terminal app with color and other
support. For vim, to enable color support, it's more syntax support
being turned on. In my ~/.vimrc I've got some of these options set:
syntax on
color pablo
set hlsearch
set ignorecase
set number
Second, in ~/.bashrc, which should be a link generally to
~/.bash_profile, I've done this:
alias ls='ls -al --color'
the --color options is what enables ls to do color listings. The only
trick is I'm using a differently compiled version of ls (look at
FinkCommander and fink to install GNU shell utilities).
Regards,
Jason

Hi Folks:
My question is in regards to Unix color syntax code. This is what I
mean, in many versions of Linux and other versions of Unix, each user
will find within a directory different colored items consistently
indicating folders, files and so on. Also within a program such as
vim it is possible to reset the use of the standard color scheme to
something akin to one's personal taste and manner of working. One
can for example write a dot file manipulating vim to produce line
numbers and unique colors for functions in C or C++.
I'm sure everyone here, in this list is aware of what I'm referring
to. Now to my question:
I notice that in OS X (v.10.3.8) this capability is not active. What
is the sequence of commands I must use or invoke so that I can see
such color syntax as I have described displayed with Terminal and
within vim?
I'd appreciate any clues or ideas or even directions to other sites
or mailing lists discussing this type of thing within Darwin.
Thanks for your assistance.
Sincerely, Derick Centeno
