ls -a

“So that’s where all my stuff went!”

ls -a1

Maybe an alternative way:

Pic A - Normal image

Pic B - Same place illuminated with ultraviolet light

s/ls/ls -1/

speed through the house with ncdu

Wait till they try
ls -laz

Showing what’s in the cupboards & drawers is more like

ls -R

And whatmade tool might tell you how all this garbage appeared here if you forgot.

I like the la alias.

Is -alR killed my parents

ll so you don’t even have to move your finger

Doesn’t show dotfiles.

PS1=$(ls -a)

Lulz, I tried that just to see the results. Either the terminal knows to not go crazy, or this fresh install is small enough to not take more than 5 seconds.

Barbarians.

ls -la, for civilized people.

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
