How do you setup such that different stuffs are displayed in different

At any sunsite or Linux Documentation Project mirror:

../docs/HOWTO/unmaintained:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 gferg ldp 12059 Sep 12 1999 Colour-ls

It's an unmaintained mini-howto. Then look at the man pages for

[compton ~]$ whatis ls dircolors
ls (1) - list contents of directories
dircolors (1) - output commands to set the LS_COLOR environment variable
[compton ~]$
