dircolors / LS_COLORS env var support would be nice

Open darkvertex opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

ls supports a --color flag which takes the contents of the LS_COLORS env var to colorize files and directories.

A popular way to set this env var is using the dircolors utility. For example, I like a dark terminal and I use this ls theme: https://github.com/sigurdga/ls-colors-solarized

I've been using it for so many years that as much as I love the icons from logo-ls, seeing filenames in plain white makes me lost, so I would love to see logo-ls detect the LS_COLORS env var and use it to colorize stuff while still delivering the nice icons.

Hi, that's a great idea, and the project will implement it in the near future. Though right now I am a bit busy so it can take some time.

replacing native ls with logo-ls for a few days now, I'm kind of missing my old filenames with color. BTW, it will be a lot nicer to provide soft link target when using -l flag as the native ls -l does, and current displaying style may be better set to a nondefault option and that will be even nicer for us old-fashioned ls users coming to logo-ls 🥳
