I am very familiar with the command alias. I just made a blind 
assumption that "ls" was not modified as I have seen root's version and 
figured (naively) that any such changes would be in the .bashrc file ... 
forgetting /etc/.bashrc.

That being said, I do think I will take a dive into "what has Fedora 
decided is the best usage and overridden the default". I suspect I will 
be surprised, but I promise that I will do my screaming in the general 
direction of my backyard and not this list.

Thanks,
Paul
