Directory Color Issues in Interactive Mode #828

Open NoobGajen opened 1 month ago

NoobGajen commented 1 month ago

I am facing some color issues in interactive mode in the zoxide tool, possibly due to an incorrect implementation of LS_COLORS. I'm using zsh 5.9 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) on Arch Linux, and I tested the zoxide tool on some Debian-based distros as well and the issue was same.

I am a big fan of the zoxide tool and have a huge respect for your work. Could you please help resolve this color issue? AND Is there any way to manually set LS_COLORS by adding an extra flag or changing some lines in the configuration files?

Thank you!

  1. What are the colours supposed to look like?
  2. What's the value of LS_COLORS?

I am not using any sort of LS_COLORS with my shell.
Do I need to use it?

BTW, I am using pure Zsh in my Arch Linux. I remember I was getting the same issue when I was customizing my Zsh shell because of LS_COLORS customization. I was not able to fix that issue, so I left out the LS_COLORS customization.

The customization was something like this: when I added this line to my .zshrc file, I started getting the same color issue with my directories as I was getting in the zoxide tool:

zstyle ':completion:*' list-colors ${(s.:.)LS_COLORS} 'di=1;34'
