Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users File and Directory Names become hidden Post 21851 by Perderabo on Thursday 23rd of May 2002 03:24:54 PM

ls should not be displaying the total line twice like that. I do not believe that you are using a standard version of ls. Repeat your experiment, but whereever you would type "ls", instead type "/usr/bin/ls".

Also what shell are you using? What do you get when type "whence ls"? Also "which ls"?

On SunOS 5.8, when I type "cksum /usr/bin/ls" I get "169775630 18844 /usr/bin/ls". What do you get?

gvfs-ls - List files SYNOPSIS
gvfs-ls [OPTION...] [LOCATION...] DESCRIPTION
gvfs-ls lists information about the given locations. If no location is given, it defaults to the current directory. gvfs-ls is similar to the traditional ls utility, but using gvfs locations instead of local files: for example you can use something like smb://server/resource/file.txt as location. File attributes can be specified with their gvfs name, e.g. standard::icon, or just by namespace, e.g. unix, or by '*' which matches all attributes. Several attributes or groups can be specified, separated by comma. OPTIONS
The following options are understood: -?, --help Prints a short help text and exits. -a, --attributes=ATTRIBUTES The attributes to get, specified as a comma-separated list of gvfs file attribute names. -h, --hidden Show hidden files. -l, --long Use a long listing format. -c, --show-completions=PREFIX Show only filenames starting with PREFIX. -n, --nofollow-symlinks Don't follow symlinks. EXIT STATUS
On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise. SEE ALSO
