To  digress  on the  subject:  Imagine  a version  of ls(1)  which  uses
different  color  lettering (on a color display) to highlight  different
file  types.  Actually,  I don't  have to imagine  it, I've seen it done
here at HP and it's  startling, to say the least!  Don't know if I could
get used to it, though...  It's distracting because it's almost TOO much
information at once.
