I am using bash. I already had the alias for ls --color in my
/etc/bashrc so I just read the man page on dircolors as well as the
info. I added the eval line to /etc/bashrc and still get the same
result. Dirs are blue, most executables are green, but no red or any
other color. What am I missing here??
