Hello!
I just installed RedHat 7.1. The "ls" utility does not function
properly. The version is:
Z86) ls --version
ls (GNU fileutils) 4.0.36
Written by Richard Stallman and David MacKenzie.
Accorinding the the manual,
These options change the order in which `ls' sorts the information
it outputs. By default, sorting is done by character code (e.g., ASCII
order).
When I "ls -a" my main directory, I get:
Z82) /bin/ls -a
. Files .muttrc term
.. finance .netscape tree
.acrorc font .nutmeg_history .twmrc
.alias .fvwm2rc observe VOLVO
.bash_history .fvwmrc optics .where
.bash_logout health optwiz .wine
.bash_profile house papers .workmandb
.bashrc .ICEauthority .pgp .workmanrc
bin imacs PHONE .xauth
Books .ispell_english radio .Xauthority
.calendar jobs .RealNetworks_RealMediaSDK_60 .Xdefaults
.calendar~ .kde .RealNetworks_RealPlayer_60 .Xdefaults~
camp lib .RealNetworks_RealShared_00 .xinitrc
china libretto .sawfish .xinitrc.linux
.cshrc lists schatz .XKeysymDB
cut.c .login .screenrc .xmodmaprc
.cvspass .mailcap sherline .xresdir
dance .mc shid .xsession
.ee .mh_profile .signature .xsession-errors
.emacs .micqrc src .yudit
.environ .mime.types .ssh .yuditrc
EVENT monogram stuff zf
Events .mozilla tablet zot
exin .msgid.cache tar
This is not in ASCII order. I can find no flag for "ls" which
corrects this bug.
Regards,
Brian
