Then, to give us the output, copy and paste from the terminal back to
the reply. Include the shell prompt before, where you entered the
command, and the blank one after. That way we can see that what you
actually entered, and tell that the output finished by the re-appearance
of the shell's prompt. So, for the first command above, it would be
something like
$ ls -ld / /tmp /tmp/.X11-unix
drwxr-xr-x 22 root root 4096 2010-07-24 07:23 /
drwxrwxrwt 15 root root 20480 2010-08-24 07:35 /tmp
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2010-08-14 09:08 /tmp/.X11-unix
$
(`$' is my shell prompt, yours will be different and longer.)
The second command above, the
(date; ls -ld / /tmp /tmp/.{ICE,X11}-unix)>>ralph.txt

That explained some of it, thanks. Tried the commands again and this is
what I got:-
Tue Aug 24 16:39:55 BST 2010
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 4096 2010-07-25 23:33 /
drwxrwxrwt 13 root root 4096 2010-08-24 16:38 /tmp
Tue Aug 24 22:59:14 BST 2010
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 4096 2010-07-25 23:33 /
drwxrwxrwt 13 root root 4096 2010-08-24 22:55 /tmp
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2010-08-24 22:54 /tmp/.ICE-unix
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2010-08-24 22:54 /tmp/.X11-unix
AND
cl...@clive-laptop:~$ ls -ld / /tmp /tmp/.X11-unix
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 4096 2010-07-25 23:33 /
drwxrwxrwt 13 root root 4096 2010-08-24 23:01 /tmp
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2010-08-24 22:54 /tmp/.X11-unix
cl...@clive-laptop:~$
Any good?
