Description Trey Valenta 2014-03-05 15:30:00 UTC
In the man page for ls, the section on "-G" reads:

-G      Enable colorized output.  This option is equivalent to defining
             CLICOLOR in the environment.  (See below.)  This functionality
             can be compiled out by removing the definition of COLORLS.

COLORLS should be LSCOLORS

How-To-Repeat: man ls | grep -A3 -- -G

From-To: open->closed

LSCOLORS in an envrionment variable documented in the man page for 
controlling the ls colors.  COLORLS is a compile time macro which 
controls wether color exists in the ls binary at all.
