I am a new user to linux and having trouble completing this task. I want to list a directory of files and folders including the name, human readable size, and last modified date. So far I can get two of the three but not all together. For example:
Using ls -lh gives me
Code:
drwxr-xr-x 3 newuzer newuzer 29 Aug 7 03:26 who am i now?
drwxr-xr-x 2 newuzer newuzer 72 Apr 9 2014 WWW folder name 1
-rw-r--r-- 1 newuzer newuzer 3.3M Aug 1 10:57 Walrus news.epub
-rw-r--r-- 1 newuzer newuzer 699M Aug 17 04:52 wonderful whales.avi
drwxr-xr-x 4 newuzer newuzer 47 Aug 18 05:24 Wyynot2
-rw-r--r-- 1 newuzer newuzer 70M Aug 7 10:27 zylopedia.pdf
drwxr-xr-x 3 newuzer newuzer 21 Jul 7 02:19 zzz folder5
This is showing me the name, date, and file size for files only, the directories are not showing the size properly
Using du -hs * gives me
Code:
1.7G who am i now?
18M WWW folder name 1
3.3M Walrus news.epub
699M wonderful whales.avi
28G Wyynot2
70M zylopedia.pdf
3.1M zzz folder5
The directories are now showing the correct size, the files still have the correct size , but the date/time is missing. I dont really need the permissions so that missing is ok.
How can i get all three name, date/time modified, and size to display? I would like the entries listed as they appear in the directory -files then folders- or with folders/files list in alphabetical order
Any assistance provided would be appreciated.
Thanks

Reason: Change existing CODE tags to ICODE tags; add missing CODE tags.

Sorry for the basic question, but I have a feeling that my developers are circumventing our change control process, and I want to be able to easily keep track of the last modified date of sub-folders of the production folder.

LEARN ABOUT OSF1
folders
folders(1) General Commands Manual folders(1)NAME
folders - list folders and contents (only available within the message handling system, mh)
SYNOPSIS
folders [+folder] [msg] [options]
OPTIONS
Lists only the name of folders, with no additional information. This is faster because the folders need not be read. Prints a list of the
valid options to this command. Lists the contents of the folder-stack. No +folder argument is allowed with this option. Re-numbers mes-
sages in the folders. Messages are re-numbered sequentially, and any gaps in the numbering are removed. The default operation is -nopack,
which does not change the numbering in the folder. Discards the top of the folder-stack, after setting the current folder to that value.
No +folder argument is allowed with this option. This corresponds to the popd operation in the C-shell; see csh(1). The -push and -pop
options are mutually exclusive: the last occurrence of either one overrides any previous occurrence of the other. Pushes the current
folder onto the folder-stack, and makes the +folder argument into the current folder. If +folder is not given, the current folder and the
top of the folder-stack are exchanged. This corresponds to the pushd operation in the C-shell; see csh(1). The -push switch and the -pop
switch are mutually exclusive: the last occurrence of either one overrides any previous occurrence of the other. Lists folders recur-
sively. Information on each folder is displayed, followed by information on any sub-folders which it contains. Displays only the total
number of messages and folders in your Mail directory. This option does not print any information about individual folders. It can be sup-
pressed using the -nototal option.
The defaults for folders are:
+folder defaults to all msg defaults to none -nofast -noheader -nototal -nopack -norecurse
DESCRIPTION
The folders command displays the names of your folders and the number of messages that they each contain.
The folders command displays a list of all the folders in your Mail directory. The folders are sorted alphabetically, each on its own line.
This is illustrated in the following example: Folder # of messages ( range ); cur msg (other files)
V2.3 has 3 messages ( 1- 3).
adrian has 20 messages ( 1- 20); cur= 2.
brian has 16 messages ( 1- 16).
chris has 12 messages ( 1- 12).
copylog has 242 messages ( 1- 242); cur= 225.
inbox+ has 73 messages ( 1- 127); cur= 127.
int has 4 messages ( 1- 4); cur= 2 (others).
jack has 17 messages ( 1- 17); cur= 17.
TOTAL= 387 messages in 8 folders.
The plus sign (+) after inbox indicates that it is the current folder. The information about the int folder includes the term (others).
This indicates that the folder int contains files which are not messages. These files may be either sub-folders, or files that do not
belong under the MH file naming scheme.
The folders command is identical to the effect of using the -all option to the folder command.
If you use folders with the +folder argument, it will display all the subfolders within the named folder. as shown in the following exam-
ple:
% folders +test Folder # of messages ( range ); cur msg (other files) test+ has 18 messages ( 1- 18);
(others). test/testone has 1 message ( 1- 1). test/testtwo has no messages.
TOTAL= 19 messages in 3 folders.
See refile(1) for more details of sub-folders.
RESTRICTIONS
MH does not allow you to have more than 100 folders at any level in your Mail directory.
PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine your MH directory
Folder-Protect: To set protections when creating a new folder
