Where do I have to change something. I've not found the place where to alter the shell. And 2nd: how can I add the possibility of having the directory contents listed in colors according there attributes (you announced this feature in your book, but I could not find the location where to specify the colors)... Thanks in advance... Lukas +----------------------------------------------------------+ ! Lukas Ruf ! ! Neugutstrasse 9 ! ! 8002 Zuerich mailto:lukas.ruf@stud.ee.ethz.ch ! !
