That's nice too, and almost more useful than the colors (as I don't
have the colors memorized, I always have to find one I know is either
a file or executable and use it for reference).

In 92.1 at least, the "#" symbol in the prompt is purple, and so I
don't see why people are objecting to more colors. The colors can be
customized, but it's more to go in the .bashrc or similar file.

I would be happy with aliasing ls to "ls -F", but I would like to have
ll="ls -l" even more so.
