cat -- display directory
|
|
|
|
syntax: cat [pathname] [-t] [-s] [-f filetype] [-a sort_keys] [-i]
|
|
|
|
ex: cat
|
|
cat -a
|
|
cat /disk -it
|
|
cat -fbas
|
|
cat /mydisk -tfSYS
|
|
cat .62 -s
|
|
cat ?:dir
|
|
|
|
Displays the contents of the directory specified by pathname; wildcards are
|
|
allowed. (If no pathname is given, displays the contents of the current
|
|
directory.) The following options are available:
|
|
|
|
-t: tree format--show contents of directories indented under the directory
|
|
names
|
|
|
|
-i: show files and directories even if they are invisible (use the 'touch'
|
|
command to make a file visible or invisible)
|
|
|
|
-s: short form--display name and filetype only
|
|
|
|
-f: show only files of given type (if -t is given, DIRs are also shown)
|
|
|
|
-a: arrange--sort the listing according to the characters following '-a'.
|
|
If no characters follow, the listing is sorted alphabetically by
|
|
filename. The following sorting keys may be combined by listing the
|
|
most significant keys first. Capitalizing a letter reverses the order
|
|
of the sort on that key.
|
|
|
|
n: name (a to z)
|
|
m: modified date/time (newest to oldest)
|
|
f: filetype ($00 to $ff)
|
|
t: same as f
|
|
s: size in bytes (largest to smallest)
|
|
x: auxiliary type ($0000 to $ffff)
|
|
b: list files needing backup before files not needing backup
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
cat -a
|
|
cat -an
|
|
arrange by name from a to z
|
|
|
|
cat -aN
|
|
arrange by name from z to a
|
|
|
|
cat -afX
|
|
arrange by increasing filetype and decreasing auxiliary type within
|
|
each filetype
|
|
|
|
Note that '-t' is ignored when '-a' is used.
