ls (whose translation list) Is a command of the Unix operating system and its derivatives that shows a list of files and directories in a certain directory. The results are listed alphabetically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Files and directories whose name begins with. (period) are not displayed with the ls instruction, so they are often referred to as “hidden files.” The -a option to ls inhibits this behavior, and displays all files and subdirectories, even those beginning with a period. It is one of the most basic tools on Unix operating systems, so it is part of the GNU Coreutils package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ls command is very useful to see the files and directories that we have within the directory in which we are and these would be one of these options of the commands that we have present:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
