L(C) XENIX System V L(C)
Name
l - Lists information about contents of directory.

Description
For each directory argument, l lists the contents of the

current directory is listed. When several arguments are
given, the arguments are first sorted appropriately, but
file arguments appear before directories and their contents.
Information is listed in the format of the ``ls -l''
command, which is identical to the l command. This format
and all provided switches are described in ls(C) and lc(C),
to which should you should refer for a complete discussion
of the capabilities of l.
Files
/etc/passwd Contains user IDs
/etc/group Contains group IDs
Notes
Newline and tab are considered printing characters in
filenames.
The output device is assumed to be 80 columns wide.
