For anyone wondering how to make 66-* programs use the -z switch by default to print output in color, if you use Bash shell you can put something like this in /etc/bash/bashrc.d/66-color.bashrc:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/bash
alias 66-all='66-all -z'
alias 66-boot='66-boot -z'
alias 66-clock='66-clock -z'
alias 66-dbctl='66-dbctl -z'

For the lazybones:

Code: [Select]

for f in /usr/bin/66-*; do alias "${f##*/}"="$f -z"; done

(tested only for f in /usr/bin/s6-*; do alias "${f##*/}"="echo $f"; done w/o putting it into an rc file, but it should work)
