Within it, there's another directory - dvp-articles, and within it, yet another - axis-off. Here, we've recursively called ls on the directory. It will give you a tree representation of all of the files or directories that happen to be in a particular place: $ ls -R directory The -R option makes this a really simple endeavor. If you want to list subdirectories, you'll have to make a recursive ls call. ![]() It sorts the files by size, in descending order: $ ls -lS The -S flag, not to be confused with the lowercase -s from earlier, is a sorting flag. Sorting Files by Size with the -lS Option Note: Blocks are the smallest writable unit for your system and hardware. The -s option displays the file's size in blocks, rather than regular bytes: $ ls -s Combining the -l flag and -a flag, you can print the hidden files alongside regular files - with their information: $ ls -laĭrwxr-xr-x 3 marija marija 4096 Jul 18 20:03. On the other hand, if you'd specifically like to also include hidden files while listing the files of a directory - you can add the -a flag. These are typically files that you don't want to see, so this makes perfect sense. ) and aren't meant to be picked up by most GUI software, or the ls command. Though, that's mostly the benefit you get from this flag. ![]() instead of showing only in bytes, which can be very helpful. Now, we can see the size of files shown in KB, MB, GB, etc. rwxrwxrwx 1 marija marija 161K large.jpg If you want a more human-readable form, you can add the joined extension -lh or simply -h after the -l option: $ ls -lhĭrwxrwxr-x 3 marija marija 4,0K Jul 18 19:26 Folder_one Note: You can get far with the -l flag, and by combining other flags with it, the ls command will get you far for this task. If you'd like to read more about permissions and how to change them via the terminal, read our Guide to Understanding chmod. The number following the permissions is the number of links to the file or directory. We can also see their owner and group, marija, and their size in bytes, as well as their modification date/time. Here we can see that we have one directory ( d in drwxrwxr-x), named Folder_one, and 2 files. rwxrwxrwx 1 marija marija 164461 large.jpg The result of this command should look something like: total 15168ĭrwxrwxr-x 3 marija marija 4096 Jul 18 19:26 Folder_one The -l option will modify the ls command to give you much more detailed info, such as whether an entry is a file or directory, the size (usually in bytes), modified date and time, permissions, and more: $ ls -l You can use them alone, or by combining a few of them, depending on what exactly you are looking for. ![]() The ls command has several non-mandatory options which, when turned on, give us much more about these files when listing them. I'm usually a slow learner to new systems at the beginning but I take off like a snowball downhill from there.Though, these are just the names, and we can't infer much from them. I'm going through some linux command tutorials online now. I've been programming for more than a year but linux feels very unintuitive. It finally left my application shelf after restarting. and it's still there in my application screen.Īlso is home the actual "Home" directory or is it under the "home" in "other locations" folder? My normal home folder is empty.Įdit: thank you everyone who gave advice. So you can't remove any old installs from your applications page? You just live with hundreds of trash files stuck on the page or reinstall linux?Īnd how can I find the file to fully uninstall and remove from all places? because I deleted the League of sktop file (that didn't even show up when searching) after an hour of digging through random folders. Now I have a shortcut called "League of Legends" in my application screen that doesn't open but there is no option to remove or delete it from the application shelf screen. I tried downloading League of Legends with lutris and something went wrong so i uninstalled lutris and wine to start fresh.
