No. The usual way to achieve this is to set up an alias or a keyboard macro that calls ls with --colors option. And btw, I hope by ``always'' you actually mean ``always, but only if standard output is the screen''. In other words, do NOT invoke ls with --colors=always, or else you will see nasty side-effects.
