Problems with 'dircolors'


Hi all,

Can someone explain me how dircolors work?
I don't understand the concept of the environment variable (in this
case - i think - LS_COLORS) and when i try 'set LS_COLORS --COLOR' it
does nothing at all.
I've tried to create a file (something.txt) with the options from '
dircolors --print-database' and then give all the values to LS_COLORS
but I get error messages like:

token is missing in line 7

and other stuff like it.

Thx,

stuccio
