Mac Terminal with readable colors


In this post 'Fixing colors in Terminal' I found a way to easily set up a nice readable Terminal in Mac.

Even it is known that apple products quality is based on the user experience, but sometimes is missing very basic things like the colors on the Terminal.

Anyway fortunately the Evan's blog and the Ciarán Walsh’s blog explain how to set up it properly.

Another good one is here http://visor.binaryage.com/

And finally I had to add the following lines in my profile.

Edit ~/.profile (by doing 'vim .profile') and add:

export CLICOLOR=1 
export LSCOLORS=ExFxCxDxBxegedabagacad
