- Release 1.0 'ls.exe'
-
-
- DOCUMENTATION:
-
- It's a Unix ls work-alike, although some options are different
- or absent. Use the '-?' command line argument for details. The
- executable included is compiled for i386. It should be Unicode
- compatible, but I haven't tested it.
-
- ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES:
-
- <None>
-
- ADDITIONAL OPTIONS:
-
- See DOCUMENTATION above.
-
- IMPLEMENTATION:
-
- This was developed with the October beta release of Windows NT.
- This is all new code, and uses the Win32 API, not POSIX. The
- code is correct, to the best of my ability to test it, but not
- particularly efficient.
-
- AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT:
-
- -The sorting routine is a hack. I should use a quick sort.
- -Default display is alphabetic across (rather than down) columns.
- -There should be an option to group directories together.
- -There should be an option to list sub-directories recursively.
- -There should be an option to display Creation or LastAccess time
- instead of LastModify time in the long listing format.
- -I'm sure there are other options that might be useful.
- Maybe POSIXify it? (re: the command line args, I mean)
