          Aha. Well, I guess I’m not the target audience because I can’t be bothered to go through the installation steps. It’s not in the LMDE repository, but I wish it were!

            It’s pretty easy. You either get it from Cargo (the Rust package manager) or add a custom repo to apt.

            Cargo is the easier and safer option: curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh && cargo install eza

            Custom apt repo:

            sudo apt update
            sudo apt install -y gpg
            
            sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/keyrings
            wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eza-community/eza/main/deb.asc | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg
            echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg] http://deb.gierens.de stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gierens.list
            sudo chmod 644 /etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gierens.list
            sudo apt update
            sudo apt install -y eza
            

            In my opinion though, you should also try lsd. It’s even better than eza. You can also get it from Cargo, just a simple cargo install lsd.

        No, eza is one of those modern Rust replacement programs. It replaces ls.
