Solarized and Terminal in OS X 10.8.4 Mountain Lion I am trying to install the Solarized color scheme for my terminal on 10.8.4 Mountain Lion. I downloaded the .terminal files from https://github.com/tomislav/osx-terminal.app-colors-solarized and followed the instructions in the README which said:


  OS X 10.7 Lion: Double click to install or import into Terminal.app preferences.
  OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion: Import into Terminal.app preferences.


I declared the terminal as xterm-256color:


But the Terminal looks like this:


What can I do so that the all the colors in the Solarized theme show up? You can see in my second screenshot that I ran ls and the directories aren't colored properly.
The bright green, yellow, blue, and cyan foreground colors seem to be almost the same as the default foreground color:



Or if you were expecting the themes to add colors to new places, they don't. They are Terminal settings files just change some of the settings that can also be changed from Terminal's preferences. You can make ls use colors with something like export CLICOLOR= LSCOLORS=dxfxcxdxbxegedabagacad.
