Ls -ltr Sort multiple columns

Hi All,

I have one requirement, where I need to have output of ls -l command sorted on 1) first on filename 2) last modified time ( descending ) - latest change first.

I am not able to figure out how to do it..
Also I dont have a way to change Date display for ls -ltr command..

I am working on korn shell env.

Please help me with this.

Thanks
Abhijeet R
