1
00:00:02,970 --> 00:00:10,550
In a graphical interface it is easy to see what is inside the directory here.

2
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:15,390
For example I see what is inside my home directory.

3
00:00:15,390 --> 00:00:22,150
But how to show it in terminal.

4
00:00:22,220 --> 00:00:26,030
For that reason we are using our as command

5
00:00:30,750 --> 00:00:39,200
so just type L as it will list all files and directories in the specific directory.

6
00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:43,750
But this view is not so clear as the one we use barometer.

7
00:00:44,190 --> 00:00:54,690
L So type L S space dash L with parameter ELA which means a longer listing format we can see more information

8
00:00:54,750 --> 00:00:56,110
such as permissions.

9
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:03,750
And here is good to mention that if it starts with D it is a directory then a we see always oh no what

10
00:01:03,740 --> 00:01:04,260
it is.

11
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:17,880
Sighs And when it was modified and other useful parameter is parameter a it will show us all hidden

12
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:27,090
files starting with DOT we can of course use more parameters together as for example both parameters

13
00:01:27,180 --> 00:01:43,590
L and a data means that if Iran it we got a long listing for map for all files and directories even

14
00:01:43,590 --> 00:01:52,140
for hidden files but you may be telling how to remembers how to remember those parameters and what they

15
00:01:52,140 --> 00:01:53,460
do for that reason.

16
00:01:53,460 --> 00:01:56,400
Most Linux distribution has manual.

17
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:02,170
So by typing man hours we open manual for Eskom.

18
00:02:02,650 --> 00:02:05,030
Here we see how to use command.

19
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:16,730
And here we see that parameter a do not ignore hidden files and other often only use parameter is spammy.

20
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:17,780
Are the

21
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:35,090
here is this barometer the source by modification time U.S. first.

22
00:02:35,090 --> 00:02:36,200
So let's test it

23
00:02:39,230 --> 00:02:42,010
I'll use two parameters.

24
00:02:42,140 --> 00:02:53,300
So just type L S that L D and is now I can see region directories and files I have modify recently so

25
00:02:53,300 --> 00:03:03,660
parameter T is for sorting it is also good to mention that if it s common you can check whatever part

26
00:03:03,780 --> 00:03:06,460
not only the current one how to do it.

27
00:03:06,510 --> 00:03:15,870
Just type LSA for example with L parameter followed by some but same I can use also for showing goodies

28
00:03:15,930 --> 00:03:21,510
inside the bin directory even if I am inside another directory

29
00:03:24,510 --> 00:03:32,460
so our s command is one of the most used Linux commands it can take some parameters but as you saw.

30
00:03:32,460 --> 00:03:40,020
Don't be afraid by this if you forgot for example how to sort by date just open a manual for Alaska

31
00:03:40,020 --> 00:03:42,210
month and then you will find it there.
