Dir_colors

[Meanie]

I want to change the colour of the directories when displayed by ls in a bash script. I tried generating the values for LS_COLORS and exported the env but it doesn't have any effect. Also, there is no DIR_COLORS file under /etc
I compiled dircolors so I got the right colour string, but it doesn't appear to be working. What else do I need?

I'm using Bundabrg's pdaxrom-patchlist ipk, which does all this stuff. I've never looked at the contents, but it all works:

thanks. I figured it out. the ls in busybox doesn't support LS_COLORS. I compiled my own copy of ls from the coreutils sources and all works

That's interesting - I haven't figured out what settings were changed (it might not even be the package I thought it was) to make it work for me, but I'm still using the busybox ls.
