Greetings fellow mac users.

I have recently started using leopard, and it seems that terminal is not very colorful at all. Unlike SSH and Putty, which have different colors for hidden files, directories etc.

For terminal, it seems that "ls -G" would get color for directories, but the color is a dark blue that cannot be changed. Dark blue is not very visible when the background is black or even when it's white.

Is there anyway to make Terminal a little bit better in this regard?


Thanks

Yes, I tried to modify those configurations. They don't, however, affect directories and hidden files etc. Instead, they change the color of everything.
