lukem 41f5d0fda6 Change '-n' so that it implies '-l' rather than requires '-l'.
Brings ls(1) closer to POSIX.1 2004.
Per discussion with Thomas Klausner and Igor Sobrado.

elad cfbe6aa48d PR/33635: Anne Bennett: Document 'a' and 'A' flags in ls(1).
strmode(3) already documented these, so use the description from there.

christos eae5877e02 from zafer: you can have either -k or -h but not both since it does not make
sense.

jschauma b338995776 Address PR 30374 as suggested in there:
"Modify the man page to match the behaviour of "ls -q",

(done by yamt@ previously)

...
modify both the behaviour and documentation for "ls -b" and "ls -B" to
make spaces readily apparent.  This could be done by adding VIS_WHITE
to the flags passed to strvis(3) in the safe_print() function in
src/bin/ls/util.c."

'ls -b' now yields foo\sbar (whitespace) foo\tbar (tab) foo\rbar (CR).
'ls -B' now yields foo\040bar foo\011bar foo\015bar.

jschauma ea274fd69c Rather than '-h' suppressing '-s' when using '-l', make it display
the blocks used in human readable form, as suggested by Alan Barrett
and Daniel Carosone.
2005-10-26 02:24:22 +00:00
jschauma 3478ebe108 document that -h makes -l suppress -s.

terminal.

jschauma 21ab633500 After last weeks addition of the '-b' flag, add '-B' and '-w' flags,
suggested by uwe@, inspired by FreeBSD.  The three flags override
each other (and the '-q' flag) and behave as follows:

     -B      Force printing of non-printable characters in file names as
	     \xxx, where xxx is the numeric value of the character in octal.

     -b      As -B, but use C escape codes whenever possible.

     -w      Force raw printing of non-printable characters.  This is the
             default when output is not to a terminal.

prints octal escapes for nongraphic characters.
