Oh, please, no "color codes".

Some of us prefer a monochrome terminal, with the only distinction being bright/bold and regular text. I'm all for modernizing the classical unix tools, but turning them into kitsch Christmas trees is maybe not the best way.

You're telling me that you don't use colors with ls? This isn't even a matter of debate, ls with colors is superior and more efficient.

`ls -F` is good enough for me
