setenv CLICOLOR

By setting this you won't need to use the -G option.

setenv LSCOLORS ExGxFxdxCxDxDxBxBxExEx

You can customize the colors by setting LSCOLORS, these are my settings.
In X the env. var. TERM should be set to 'xterm-color'.

The setting of these variables might be different depending on your shell.
The above is for csh-like shells, for sh-like shells it's
set CLICOLOR
export CLICOLOR

You probably want to put these things in your .cshr, .profile or something
like that.
