Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Changing file-folder colors and screen output

 

ls | less   Should prove page views

I am running the terminal version of Ubuntu. I think this is what it is   called. I enter line commands rather than having a gui interface.    Yesterday when I entered 'ls -a' the files and folder names were   colored, i.g., files were a deep blue. It has always been this way. This   morning the print color of files and folders are all white. This makes   it hard to distinguish files from folders. What happened? On the   internet the suggestions were to go into a file and modify some   settings. This seems to be an extreme measure, unless somehow the   dircolors got corrupted. How can I get back to what I had?    As another issue, I think I read somewhere how to control the screen   display of, say, error messages so that it does not scroll all the way   to the bottom. When it scrolls all the way to the bottom I cannot see   the very first top lines if the output is larger than the screen size.   What do I do to control scrolling?
