User:Mjb/tcsh configuration files
From Offset
Jump to navigationJump to searchHere are the tcsh shell configuration files I use. I try to keep them compatible with csh but have not fully tested them there.
Any questions/comments/suggestions, email me directly at root (at) skew.org.

.colors
This is referenced by my .cshrc, above.
tcsh's builtin command ls-F, when invoked without other options while the shell variable color is set, colorizes the plain output of /bin/ls -F. tcsh uses the LS_COLORS environment variable to customize these colors. LS_COLORS uses the same format as expected by GNU ls. On a Linux system you can run dircolors to generate LS_COLORS from a config file, or run dircolors --print-database to see the config file. On FreeBSD, you can accomplish pretty much the same thing using the technique below.
However, if you invoke /bin/ls directly, or if you use ls-F with other options (like ls-F -A), then LS_COLORS is ignored. Instead, depending on whether the color shell variable is set, tcsh just passes the extra ls-F options to /bin/ls or /bin/ls -G (or /bin/ls --color=auto on non-BSD OSes). FreeBSD's /bin/ls uses an LSCOLORS environment variable (no underscore in its name) when colorizing the output. LSCOLORS has a special format and is much less capable than LS_COLORS; see the ls(1) man page. This colorization by /bin/ls will happen whenever it is invoked with -G or when the CLICOLOR environment variable is set. However, it will not happen if the output is being redirected and CLICOLOR_FORCE is not set. Apps which parse the output of /bin/ls tend to have difficulty when CLICOLOR_FORCE is set.
Changes from original version: I made the defaults match my LSCOLORS; I added a few document, media, and source file types; and I changed the heinous purple document color to bright white.
# ~/.colors v0.99 for FreeBSD tcsh - [c]2012 Michael S. Sanders
# SYNOPSIS: an enhancement of the tcsh builtin 'LS_COLORS' providing a
# method of organizing/externalizing file colors. The strategy is to use
# only native FreeBSD components (no 3rd party pkgs or ports).
# REQUIREMENTS: tcsh, awk, & your favorite editor

# SETUP (3 steps):
#
# 1. save this file in your home directory as '.colors'
#
# 2. add the following construct to ~/.tcshrc, or ~/.cshrc (excluding '#')
#
# if (-f ~/.colors) then
# alias ls 'ls-F'
# set listflags='ha'
# set color
# setenv LS_COLORS `awk '! /^#|^$|\t/ {printf $1"="$2":"}' ~/.colors`
# endif
#
# 3. (re)source your ~/.tcshrc by invoking 'source ~/.tcshrc'
