Look up the manual "man dircolors". It's documented.
Yes, but only if you happen to understand the numeric codes and how they
interact. For somebody like me, who has no need to know that type of thing, it's
simply gibberish. That's why my .bashrc contains this line:
alias ls=ls
That gets rid of the colors that somebody "helpfully" decided that everybody wants.
alias lss=/bin/ls
alias ll=/bin/ls -l
alias lla=/bin/ls -lA
And so forth. Why stop before you're done. Every time I find I am using a
particular ls incantation fairly frequently I make a new alias.
(For Windows types "alias dir=/bin/ls -ld". Which is a restatement of the old
saw, "A good programmer can write FORTRAN in any language.")
