To see the full list of options for the ls command, type "ls --help".
Some of the more important options are:
* -a - show all files (do not hide files starting with .) * -h - human readable (e.g., show file size as 2K instead of 2048) * -l - long listing format (show much more information about each file) The options can be combined. For example "ls -lha".
[Note: I often need a long listing of all files with the most recently modified file(s) at the end of the listing so I frequently use the command:
ls -latr
to accomplish this task. JHM]
