ls

Synopsis

ls [-dlpqrstu] files...


-d	If argument is a directory, list it, not its contents.
-l	List in long format, giving mode (see below), file system type (e.g., for devices, the `#` code letter that names it; see Inferno Devices), the instance or subdevice number, owner, group, size in bytes, and time of last modification for each file.
-p	Print only the final path element of each file name.
-q	Include the qid (see stat) of each file. By default, the output is sorted alphabetically by name; however, there are a number of sorting options.
-r	Reverse the order of sort.
-s	Sort by size.
-t	Sort by time modified (latest first) instead of by name.
-u	Sort by time of last access.


mode	The mode contains ten characters. The first character is
	`d`	if the entry is a directory;
	`-`	if the entry is a plain file.
	The remaining nine characters are interpreted as three sets of three bits each. The first set refers to owner (uid) permissions; the next to permissions to others in the same user-group (gid); and the last to all others.
	Within each set the three characters indicate permission respectively to read, to write, or to execute the file as a program.
	For a directory, `execute' permission means permission to search the directory for a specified file.
	The permissions are indicated as follows:
	`r`	if the file is readable;
	`w`	if the file is writable;
	`x`	if the file is executable;
	`-`	if none of the above permissions is granted.
devtype	The device type for the file, a single character representing the root of a file tree implemented by a particular kernel device driver.
device number	A number provided by the file system server.
uid	The user identity string.
gid	The group identity string.
size	The size of the file in bytes.
modification time	The modification time of the file formatted per `Daytime->filet:` files less than 6 months old appear with month, day-of-month, and time-of-day; files over 6 months old show appear with month, day-of-month, and year.
name	The file name.

stat	for general discussion of file attributes
Inferno Devices	for discussion of device type
stat	for definition of modification time
