ls -a

man i just figured out DOS in the 80s i’m slow okay

-lah gang rise up

I like ls -Ap, the -p option is convenient, it puts a / at the end of names if they’re directories. -A is like -a but doesn’t show . and ..

-l is sometimes useful, but a bit cluttered and less readable (at least to me, maybe it wouldn’t be if I were used to using it)

Depends on the distro how that alias is defined (if it is defined)…

That is true, but I would define standard practice like this:
ls -l = ll
And
ls -la = la

-Ahl here! Human-readable sizes and get rid of . and ..!

edit: format code so …! doesn’t look funny

I’m an ls -alh guy, myself.

Do you mean putting the l before the a, or just the l and a flags in general?

Yeah, fair enough.

Human-readable? What, are you some kind of human?

yeah that would make more sense

but if your hand is already on the keyboard, it’s faster to type la than ll since you can move two hands faster than one (if they’re doing the same movement, since with one hand you’d need to do the movement, reset and do it again)

But I have 10 of those to type with?

ls -ha… is Linux laughing at my mess…???

ls -latr

To see where’s the most recent shit cause that’s what I’m interested in.

That’s what we call lla here at ~
