Description Forgotten User bwNirt9brK 2006-02-26 02:51:55 UTC 
Currently the default DIR_COLORS setting of ORPHAN (from /etc/DIR_COLORS) is red on black:

ORPHAN 40;31    # symlink to nonexistent file

But archives also use red:

.tar  00;31

which is (in most schemes) practically equivalent to 40;31.

Therefore I suggest using 

ORPHAN 41;33;01	# symlink to nonexistent file

(bold yellow on red) which will make it very clear that there is a problem with that file when listing is done.
