rc and file format

[walter harms]

hi katey,

1. ls
what you see are console codes (man console_codes).
you application test the shell: "I am a XY Terminal"
and the shell login shell adjust the codes for color settting
etc. accordingly. you application is not interpreting the codes,
result:
[1;34mbin[0m

(very short, very simple, partly misleading description beware!)

2. init

init used inittab to find out what to do next. (man 5 inittab).
the question is WHEN do you want your script running ?
ONE solution is:
rc::bootwait:/etc/rc

please note that bb-init does not support runlevels!
