elnx

elnx is a command-line utility that provides an alternative to the standard Linux `ls` command. Its primary design goal is to offer a more visually appealing and informative output for file listings directly within the terminal. elnx differentiates itself by incorporating color-coding for different file types, permissions, and other file attributes. This visual distinction can help users quickly identify important information such as executables, directories, and symbolic links.

The utility is also designed to be configurable, allowing users to customize the appearance of the output to suit their preferences. This often includes options for controlling which attributes are displayed, the color schemes used, and the overall layout of the file listing. While `ls` is a ubiquitous tool, elnx aims to enhance the user experience for those who spend a significant amount of time working in the terminal and appreciate a more intuitive and visually rich representation of their file system. Installation typically involves downloading and compiling the source code or using a package manager if it is available in a specific distribution's repositories.
