Colour in the OS X Terminal.app

["Paul Blackburn" <paulwb@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I've used jed off and on for years now, since 2000 when I started
studying physics (still going, but that's another story...).

I enjoyed the syntax colouring of C++ code. All this was on Linux boxes.

Fast forward a few years, and I started using OS X. I never was able
to get the Terminal.app colouring to work. Oh, I could ssh into a
Linux box and get full screen colour in jed, I could do an ls -G on OS
X and get colours, but never in jed.

I tried all the hints and tips that I found. Setting env variables,
editing my profile, everything. Even copying termcap files. It never
worked.

I now have a new MacBook Pro, and I want to give it a try again. I
just like jed too much to let it go.

If someone here has a working setup under OS X 10.4 and Terminal.app,
I could greatly appreciate any help.

Here is my .bash_profile:

***
export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
export DISPLAY=:0.0

LS_COLORS='no=00;32:fi=00:di=00;34:ln=01;36:pi=04;33:so=01;35:bd=33;04:cd=33;04:

*.mov=00;37:*.mp3=00;35:' export LS_COLORS;

export TERM=xterm-color
export CLICOLOR=true

alias ls='ls -G'
alias ll='ls -hl'
***

I will give you any other info you need to figure this one out.

Thanks in advance,

Paul
