.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
For each \fIfile\fR that is a directory, \fBls\fR lists the contents of the
directory. For each \fIfile\fR that is an ordinary file, \fBls\fR repeats its
name and any other information requested. The output is sorted alphabetically
by default. When no argument is given, the current directory (\fB\&.\fR) is
listed. When several arguments are given, the arguments are first sorted
appropriately, but file arguments appear before directories and their contents.
.sp
.LP
There are three major listing formats. The default format for output directed
to a terminal is multi\(micolumn with entries sorted down the columns. The
\fB-1\fR option allows single column output and \fB-m\fR enables stream output
format. In order to determine output formats for the \fB-C\fR, \fB-x\fR, and
\fB-m\fR options, \fBls\fR uses an environment variable, \fBCOLUMNS\fR, to
determine the number of character positions available on one output line. If
this variable is not set, the \fBterminfo\fR(4) database is used to determine
the number of columns, based on the environment variable, \fBTERM\fR. If this
information cannot be obtained, 80 columns are assumed. If the \fB-w\fR option
is used, the argument overrides any other column width.
.sp
.LP
The mode printed when the \fB-e\fR, \fB-E\fR, \fB-g\fR, \fB-l\fR, \fB-n\fR,
\fB-o\fR, \fB-v\fR, \fB-V\fR, or \fB-@\fR option is in effect consists of
eleven characters. The first character can be one of the following:
.sp

.sp
.LP
The next 9 characters are interpreted as three sets of three bits each. The
first set refers to the owner's permissions; the next to permissions of others
in the user-group of the file; and the last to all others. Within each set, the
three characters indicate permission to read, to write, and to execute the file
as a program, respectively. For a directory, \fBexecute\fR permission is
interpreted to mean permission to search the directory for a specified file.
The character after permissions is an ACL or extended attributes indicator.
This character is an \fB@\fR if extended attributes are associated with the
file and the \fB-@\fR option is in effect. Otherwise, this character is a plus
sign (\fB+\fR) character if a non-trivial ACL is associated with the file or a
space character if not.
.sp
.LP
If \fB-/\fR and/or \fB-%\fR are in effect, then the extended system attributes
are printed when filesystem supports extended system attributes. The display
looks as follows:
.sp

\fBls\fR \fB-l\fR (the long list) prints its output as follows for the POSIX
locale:

.LP
Reading from right to left, you see that the current directory holds one file,
named \fBpart2\fR. Next, the last time that file's contents were modified was
\fB9:42 A.M.\fR on \fBMay 16\fR. The file contains 10,876 characters, or bytes.
The owner of the file, or the user, belongs to the group \fBdev\fR (perhaps
indicating \fBdevelopment\fR), and his or her login name is \fBsmith\fR. The
number, in this case \fB1\fR, indicates the number of links to file \fBpart2\fR
(see \fBcp\fR(1)). The plus sign indicates that there is an \fBACL\fR
associated with the file. If the \fB-@\fR option has been specified, the
presence of extended attributes supersede the presence of an \fBACL\fR and the
plus sign is replaced with an 'at' sign (\fB@\fR). Finally, the dash and
letters tell you that user, group, and others have permissions to read, write,
and execute \fBpart2\fR.
.sp
.LP
The execute (\fBx\fR) symbol occupies the third position of the three-character
sequence. A \fB\(mi\fR in the third position would have indicated a denial of
execution permissions.

.RE

.sp
.LP
For user and group permissions, the third position is sometimes occupied by a
character other than \fBx\fR or \fB-\fR. \fBs\fR or \fBS\fR also can occupy
this position, referring to the state of the set-ID bit, whether it be the
user's or the group's. The ability to assume the same ID as the user during
execution is, for example, used during login when you begin as root but need to
assume the identity of the user you login as.
.sp
.LP
In the case of the sequence of group permissions, \fBl\fR can occupy the third
position. \fBl\fR refers to mandatory file and record locking. This permission
describes a file's ability to allow other files to lock its reading or writing
permissions during access.
.sp
.LP
For others permissions, the third position can be occupied by \fBt\fR or
\fBT\fR. These refer to the state of the sticky bit and execution permissions.
.SS "Color Output"
.LP
If color output is enabled, the environment variable LS_COLORS is checked.  If
it exists, it's contents are used to control the colors used to display
filenames.  If it is not set, a default list of colors is used. The format of
LS_COLORS is a colon separated list of attribute specifications. Each attribute
specification is of the format

On some terminals, setting the bold attribute causes the foreground colors to

often displayed as a brown or orange color.
.sp

At least one attribute must be listed for a file specification.

The appropriate color codes are chosen by selecting the most specific match,
starting with the file suffixes and proceeding with the file types until a
match is found. The \fBno\fR (normal file) type matches any file.

Unprintable characters in file names can confuse the columnar output options.

The total block count is incorrect if there are hard links among the files.

The sort order of \fBls\fR output is affected by the locale and can be
overridden by the \fBLC_COLLATE\fR environment variable. For example, if
\fBLC_COLLATE\fR equals \fBC\fR, dot files appear first, followed by names
beginning with upper-case letters, then followed by names beginning with
lower-case letters. But if \fBLC_COLLATE\fR equals \fBen_US.ISO8859-1\fR, then
leading dots as well as case are ignored in determining the sort order.
