Changing terminal color I would like to know how to change the terminal color, so whenever I run 
ls it will return the name of:


Directories in red
Files in blue
Executable files (those you do ./file) in light green


How do I do that?
Usually this is done with

ls -G


Personally I'm using an alias, e.g. in .bash_aliases which is loaded by .bash_profile

alias ls="ls -G"


However, there's another option, i.e. turning on CLICOLOR in your shell, e.g. by adding the following to your .bash_profile

export CLICOLOR=1
