How to configure coloring of the file names in MC?
Is it possible to configure the Midnight Commander (Ubuntu 10.10) to show certain file and directory names differently, e.g. all hidden (starting with a period) using grey color?
Solution 1:
Under Options -> Panel Options select File highlight -> File types.
See man mc in the Colors section for ways to choose particular colors by adding entries in your ~/.config/mc/ini file. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be a keyword for hidden files.
