Display wide listing of files and directories only?
What is the command to see the Linux files in wide listing?
What is the command to display folders only? On occasions I have to use Win98 and telnet or ftp into a remote Linux environment. I do this from Windows DOS prompt. The problem is with the Win98 DOS prompt environment does not have a scrollbar, whereas Windows XP does. My problem is when I enter the command $ls This shows all the files in a long list and since I have many files and folders some of the top files do not show? I would like to display the files in wide listing i.e file1 file2 file3 file4 ... fileN rather then file1 file2 ... fileN What is the command for this? I have tried combinations like $ls -w etc... but does not work I have done search on the web and I thought this would be easily found on the web but I was very wrong. The second questions What is the command to display name of folders in Linux/Unix? I have tried $ls -d ... but this does not seem to be it? |
did you try
ls -d * |
also ls canbe aliased to something like ls -1 if you say that ls shows
file file1 file2 ...... fileN unalias ls to get it working normally. |
$ls -1
on telnet gives long listing $ls on telnet gives wide listing $ls -1 on ftp gives long listing $ls on ftp gives long lisiting ftp gives long listing for both commands. I guess the best thing to do is open two clients. One for ftpo and the other for telnet? |
