Terminal Font Colour Themes?

Hey gang.
Im trying to abandon xubuntu for zenwalk linux and have most everything set up close enough to my liking that i might actually stay..  the only problem is that my terminal fonts are no longer themed/coloured.

In xubuntu when i used the default xfce terminal executables were green and folders were blue etc..
In zenwalk all the fonts are the same colour regardless of what type of file they represent.

Can someone please help me fix this.. apparently im low on google mana and cant get it figured out..

Thanks for your time.
Delaney!

Duno if you're using dir or ls to display the folder content in bash, but you can create an alias in the .bash_profile or .bash_rc file in your home directory. Something like:

alias dir="dir --color=auto"
alias ls="ls --color=auto"
