ls (target)

Runs on:

QNX OS

Options:

-1

(One) List one file per line.

-A

List all files but . (dot) and .. (dot dot).

-a

List all files, including hidden ones i.e., those that start with a dot (.).

-b

Display escapes for nongraphic characters.

-C

Display multiple-column output, with entries sorted vertically in columns.

-c

For sorting (-t) or printing (-l), use the time of last change to the file's status information (ctime) instead of time of last modification of the file itself.

--color[=auto]

Color the output based on file type. The colors for each file type are seen in the following table:

File type	Color
Device	Yellow
Directory	Blue
Executable files (.exe files)	Green
Socket	Purple
Sticky directory	Greenback
SUID	Red
SUID File	Red background
Symbolic Link	Turquoise/red

=auto means detect if output is a tty.

-d

Treat directories like files; give information on the directory itself, not on the files or subdirectories it contains.

-F

Indicate the filetype by adding an extra character after some pathnames, as follows:

Character	Meaning
/	Directories
*	Executable files (.exe files)
|	FIFOs (named pipes)
@	Symbolic links (QNX OS extension)

-f

Output is not sorted.

-g

Like -l ("el") but don't list owner.

-H

Follow command line symlinks.

-h

With -l and -s, print human readable sizes.

-i

For each file, print the file's inode number.

-L

Follow symbolic links.

-l

("el") List files in long format. This option provides most of the relevant file information.

-ll --full-time

List files in long format with nanoseconds.

-m

Fill the width with a comma-separated list of entries.

-N

No escaping, even on tty.

-n

Like -l ("el") except display numeric user and group IDs.

-o

Like -l ("el") but don't display group information.

-p

Put a forward slash (/) after directory names.

-q

Force print filename characters that aren't included in the character set classification in the current locale to be displayed as a question mark (?).

-R

Recursively list all subdirectories encountered.

-r

Reverse the order of the sort to get either oldest files first (if files are being sorted by time) or reverse collating sequence.

-S

Sort by file size.

-s

Display the size of storage used in 512-byte blocks.

-t

Sort by time modified (most recently modified first).

-u

Use access time for timestamps.

-w

Set column width.

-x

List entries by columns (sort horizontally).

-Z

Display any security context of each file.

file

The pathname of a file to be listed. If the file specified isn't found, a diagnostic message is output on standard error. Files are displayed in command-line sequence.
