00:00:00,950 --> 00:00:07,580
‫The LS Command is used to list files or directories in Linux and other Unix based operating systems,

2
00:00:08,870 --> 00:00:14,930
‫just like you navigate in your File Explorer or Finder with a gooey, the L.

3
00:00:14,930 --> 00:00:21,230
‫S Command allows you to list all the files or directories in the current directory by default and further

4
00:00:21,230 --> 00:00:23,000
‫interact with them via the command line.

5
00:00:25,130 --> 00:00:32,360
‫Dash eight or double dash all parameters, lists, files or directories, including hidden files or

6
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:40,850
‫directories, so in Linux, anything that begins with DOT that is considered a hidden file.

7
00:00:43,470 --> 00:00:49,800
‫Dash L lists the contents of the directory in a table format with content permissions.

8
00:00:50,250 --> 00:00:52,020
‫Size of the content and bytes.

9
00:00:52,260 --> 00:00:56,640
‫And last modified date and time of the content.

10
00:01:00,420 --> 00:01:07,170
‫Dash eight shore double dash, human readable display size information with human readable format.

11
00:01:10,110 --> 00:01:19,710
‫Dash, yes, or double dash size, where as is lower case lists, files or directories with their sizes.

12
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:30,460
‫Dash uppercase s lists, files or directories and sorts by date or time in descending order or from

13
00:01:30,460 --> 00:01:31,900
‫biggest to smallest.

14
00:01:34,450 --> 00:01:42,340
‫Finally, dashti is a parameter that lists files or directories and source by last modified date and

15
00:01:42,340 --> 00:01:45,220
‫time in descending order from biggest to smallest.

16
00:01:45,730 --> 00:01:46,900
‫So let's go ahead and practice.

17
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:49,270
‫So go to Carly.

18
00:01:50,210 --> 00:01:53,420
‫Log in with the default credentials, Kelly and Kelly.

19
00:02:02,190 --> 00:02:08,130
‫Open up the command line now you can change the font size from the preferences under the File tab.

20
00:02:09,140 --> 00:02:10,280
‫Click on Change.

21
00:02:11,210 --> 00:02:17,180
‫I'm going to set the size to be 14, OK, so it's better for me.

22
00:02:18,890 --> 00:02:20,410
‫Now let's run the L.

23
00:02:20,420 --> 00:02:25,100
‫S command with a help parameter and we'll be able to see some detailed information.

24
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:41,440
‫So you can see the arguments, options and parameters here, and you can use them when needed.

25
00:02:42,250 --> 00:02:43,180
‫They're all right here.

26
00:02:45,550 --> 00:02:47,680
‫So I'll show you some of the most common options.

27
00:02:52,150 --> 00:02:56,350
‫Now, and by the way, you can clear the screen with control L.

28
00:02:57,910 --> 00:03:05,110
‫So let's list all the files under these users bin folder with Dash Al parameter.

29
00:03:09,010 --> 00:03:10,090
‫And as you can see.

30
00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:18,630
‫We find all the files, including the hidden files, with the long listing format, and these are the

31
00:03:18,630 --> 00:03:21,270
‫permissions and last modified date of the file.

32
00:03:23,150 --> 00:03:26,840
‫So let's look at the file sizes with the human readable format.

33
00:03:39,470 --> 00:03:43,020
‫And as you can see, the file sizes are more readable now.

34
00:03:49,460 --> 00:03:56,780
‫Now the next parameter is lowercase s, and it'll show you the total size and sizes of each file.

35
00:04:05,100 --> 00:04:07,500
‫And then finally, we'll use the T parameter.

36
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:18,060
‫And it sorts the files and directories by the last modified date and time from biggest to smallest.
