117
use a long listing format
119
\fB\-L\fR, \fB\-\-dereference\fR

170
\fB\-\-time\fR=\fIWORD\fR
171
with \fB\-l\fR, show time as WORD instead of modification
172
time: atime \fB\-u\fR, access \fB\-u\fR, use \fB\-u\fR, ctime \fB\-c\fR,

174
if \fB\-\-sort\fR=\fItime\fR
176
\fB\-\-time\-style\fR=\fISTYLE\fR
177
with \fB\-l\fR, show times using style STYLE:
178
full\-iso, long\-iso, iso, locale, +FORMAT.
179
FORMAT is interpreted like 'date'; if FORMAT is
180
FORMAT1<newline>FORMAT2, FORMAT1 applies to
181
non\-recent files and FORMAT2 to recent files;
182
if STYLE is prefixed with 'posix\-', STYLE
183
takes effect only outside the POSIX locale
186

193

212
print any SELinux security context of each file
215
list one file per line
218
display this help and exit
221
output version information and exit
223
SIZE is an integer and optional unit (example: 10M is 10*1024*1024). Units
224
are K, M, G, T, P, E, Z, Y (powers of 1024) or KB, MB, ... (powers of 1000).
226
Using color to distinguish file types is disabled both by default and
227
with \fB\-\-color\fR=\fInever\fR. With \fB\-\-color\fR=\fIauto\fR, ls emits color codes only when
228
standard output is connected to a terminal. The LS_COLORS environment
229
variable can change the settings. Use the dircolors command to set it.
236
if minor problems (e.g., cannot access subdirectory),
239
if serious trouble (e.g., cannot access command\-line argument).
