ls - color by default



Yeah, great point.  Problem is I (for one) don't know HOW to compile
"--color" as the default.  Same thing with "less" as the default pager
instead of "more", sure would be great to have that be standard.  Maybe
someone could make a .deb package with all the cool "options" as defaults:

less as pager default
ls --color
color prompts
common aliases, variables and .profiles
etc.

I am sure if we all put our heads together we could come up with some
really common things we all end configuring after installing a new linux
box.
Put them in a package and install it, let it do the "config" for you...

I haven't got the skills to pull it off - yet.
