how to get a color terminal
to make your terminal display color coded files and directories when you call the ls command,
run:
sudo apt-get install fileutils(have to have fink installed first if you're on the mac)
then add to your .bashrc or .profile:
eval "`dircolors -b`"
alias ls='ls --color=auto'

You could also add
export CLICOLOR=1
export LSCOLORS=ExFxCxDxBxegedabagacad
to ~/.bash_profile (assuming you're using bash and tiger)
I haven't figured out how to change directories from dark blue (which are hard to read on my transparent black terminal background).
