Hi, Why is there a bunch of junk on the end of each line when I do a ls
and pipe it to more or less, and how do I get rid of it?
I guess they are control codes, ^]]m on the end of each filename, and
34^]]m at the start and end of each directory. 
My system has only two users, root and Jake, and it only happens when I
login as Jake, root is fine.  I am using tcsh.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Jake
