Strange. Maybe I added it myself - can't remember! Anyway, try adding:

<code>
# enable color support of ls and also add handy aliases
if [ "$TERM" != "dumb" ]; then
     eval `dircolors -b`
     alias ls='ls --color=auto'
     #alias dir='ls --color=auto --format=vertical'
     #alias vdir='ls --color=auto --format=long'
fi
</code>

Uncomment the dir and vdir lines if you want them.

HTH
