Hello Rooters, Just an esthetical thing here (and probably slightly "off-topic" for the Root-talk list but anyway ...) that perhaps somebody finds useful (or not) ... Under Linux my 'ls' command is aliased to 'ls --color=tty' (actually to more options which are of no matter for this discussion). If you want your Root files to be differentiated from the plain "normal" default color when listing your directory contents, you can apply the following simple 2-step recipe ... cp /etc/DIR_COLORS $HOME/.dir_colors echo '.root 01;31 # personal color setting for Root files' >> $HOME/.dir_colors The next time you start your X11, you'll see your Root files listed in bright red (provided of course that you do 'ls --color=tty'). Other color and options settings are described in the .dir_colors file ...
