Hi,
I would like to know if 'ls' can use ncurses instead of its own code for
colors.
I plan to do this myself, but it seems ncurses depends on the coreutils.
Any hints?
Could you expand on the proposal.
Currently ls/dircolors hardcode the ^[[${color}m control code scheme,
with the ${color}s being defined in countless system and user configs.
Are there new/old terminal types you'd like to support that don't
support the existing scheme?
cheers,
Pádraig.
