Description yahya 2010-08-03 06:43:29 UTC
Terminator is a full featured cross platform terminal: http://software.jessies.org/terminator/
It's arguably the best available on Windows. It supports color so the line 
TERM terminator
should be added to /etc/DIR_COLORS in sys-apps/coreutils.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login to a gentoo box using terminator
2. Get a bash prompt in black and white
Actual Results:  
Bash prompt is not colorful. User gets depressed.

Expected Results:  
Colorful prompt should appear. User becomes cheerful.

/etc/DIR_COLORS can be copied to $HOME/.dir_colors and edited per user.

i cant see pushing a new coreutils rev just for this, so i'm going to let this sit.  if a bug requires a rev bump in the future, i'll include this, otherwise this will be fixed by the next version from upstream since they've included it.
