I generally have ls aliased to 'ls --color=none' and that works |
28 |
fine. In my post I used ls as a simple example of a program |
29 |
that can/does use escape sequences. |
30 |
|
31 |
Other programs that use escape sequences are emerge and runscript |
32 |
(used in starting services). Alias 'emerge --color' |
33 |
suppresses ansi color sequences for direct invocations of emerge |
34 |
(because the alias is used for that). |
35 |
|
36 |
I also use 'eix-sync' which runs emerge. In _this_ instance, ansi |
37 |
escape sequences are _not_ suppressed and I do find them annoying. |
38 |
|
39 |
Now that I'm home from work, I have the time to experiment :-> |
