Details on the ls command and file types
Hey y'all,
I need some help with the nitty gritty of the ls command. -First off in the man pages in the -l mode the first character can be "door" can anyone tell me what a door is??? -also in the -l mode the first character can be "fifo"or"pipe" can anyone tell me what a this is??? -What exactly does the -f option do? in the man pages it states: "forces each argument to be interpreted as a directory and list the name found in each slot" can someone give me an example of this??? -Does anyone by any remote chance know how ls determines columns based on the COLUMNS environment variable?? |
