<BR></FONT></A></CENTER></H1>
<P>This chapter covers some useful commands and constructs that help you better manage your data files. As a system matures, the file system becomes an eclectic collection of data files—some old, some new, some borrowed, some blue. The file system
maintains information about data files such as file ownership, the size of the file, and the access dates. All of this information is useful in helping to manage your data. You'll learn more about ls, the directory list command. In addition, you'll learn
about the find command, which you can use to locate files even when you don't know the complete path name.
<BR></P>
<P>Sometimes you want to limit the scope of a command so that the output from the command is more focused. You accomplish this by using partial filenames and some special wildcard characters. This chapter discusses three ways of causing the system to make
filename substitutions.
<BR></P>
<P>You'll also look at two of the most powerful features of UNIX—redirection and piping—which are methods for rerouting the input and output of most commands.

<P>As you learned in Chapter 3, "The UNIX File System: Go Climb a Tree," the ls command lists the names of files and directories. This section reviews the basics of ls and provides examples of its options.
<BR></P>
<H4 ALIGN="CENTER">
<CENTER><A ID="I4" NAME="I4">
<FONT SIZE=3><B><I>ls</I></B><B> The Short and Long of It</B>
<BR></FONT></A></CENTER></H4>
<P>In its simplest form, the ls command without arguments displays the names of the files and directories in the current working directory in alphabetical order by name. For example,
<BR></P>
<PRE>$ <B>ls</B>
21x LINES.dat LINES.idx PAGES.dat PAGES.idx
acct.pds marsha.pds p11 t11 users</PRE>
<P>On some systems, the default output from ls is a single column of output. Most of the examples in this chapter use the columnar format to conserve space.
<BR></P>
<P>The ls command can also accept a filename as a command line parameter. For example,
<BR></P>
<PRE>$ ls marsha.pds
marsha.pds</PRE>
<P>If the command line parameter is a directory name, all the files in that directory are listed. For example,
<BR></P>
<PRE>$ ls users
dave marsha mike</PRE>
<P>Notice that the files are listed in order by collating sequence. That is, files beginning with numbers come first; files beginning with uppercase characters come next; and files beginning with lowercase characters come last. Also notice that although
this format displays your filenames in a compact fashion, it doesn't give you much information about the files. You can get more detail about the files by requesting a long listing with the -l option. For example,
<BR></P>
<PRE>$ ls -l
-rwxr-xr— 1 asm adept 512 Dec 14 16:16 21x
-rw-rw-r— 1 marsha adept 1024 Jan 20 14:14 LINES.dat
-rw-rw-r— 1 marsha adept 3072 Jan 20 14:14 LINES.idx

<P>A long listing displays seven columns of information about each file. In the first line of the listing,
<BR></P>
<TABLE BORDER>
<TR>
<TD>
<P>-rwxr-xr— </P>
<TD>
<P>indicates the file's type and permissions</P>
<TR>
<TD>
<P>1</P>
<TD>
<P>indicates the number of links to the file</P>
<TR>
<TD>
<P>asm </P>
<TD>
<P>is the user ID of the file's owner</P>
<TR>
<TD>
<P>adept </P>
<TD>
<P>is the group ID of the group that the owner belongs to</P>
<TR>
<TD>
<P>512 </P>
<TD>
<P>is the size of the file in bytes</P>
<TR>
<TD>
<P>Dec 14 16:16 </P>
<TD>
<P>is the time stamp—the date and time when the file was last modified</P>
<TR>
<TD>
<P>21x </P>
<TD>
<P>is the name of the file (refer to Figure 3.4 in Chapter 3)</P></TABLE>
<P>The first and second columns require a bit more explanation. The first column is a ten-character field that indicates the file's mode—its type and its permissions. In the first line of the list, the file's mode is -rwxr-xr—. The first
character tells the file type, which is a hyphen (-) for regular files, and d for directories. In this example, the first nine items in the list are all ordinary files, and the last item is a directory.
<BR></P>
<P>The next nine characters of the entry are the file's permissions—three sets of three characters that control which users may access a file and what they can do with it. The first set of three characters controls what the file's owner can do; the
second set of three characters controls what others in the group can do; and the third set of three characters controls what all other users can do. Each set of three characters shows read (r), write (w), and execute (x) permission, in that order. A hyphen
(-) means that the permission is denied.
<BR></P>
<P>The second column of the long listing is the number of links to this file. All the files except two—p11 and t11—are pointed to only from this directory. p11 and t11 have entries in three other directories, for a total of four links.
<BR></P>
<P>You should refer to the "Keeping Secrets—File and Directory Permissions" section in Chapter 3 for a complete description of file types and for further details on file permissions. File links are covered in the "Hard and Symbolic
Links" section of Chapter 3.

<P>The ls command has several options. This section covers many of the ones more frequently used.

<P>The ls option doesn't normally list files that begin with a period. Suppose that the directory displayed in the previous section also contained a file named .profile. In that case, you would see
<BR></P>
<PRE>$ ls -a
. .. .profile 21x LINES.dat
LINES.idx PAGES.dat PAGES.idx acct.pds marsha.pds
p11 t11 users</PRE>
<P>Note that the files . and .. represent the current and parent directories, respectively.
<BR></P>
<P>You can combine options, as in this example:
<BR></P>
<PRE>$ ls -al
-rw-r—r— 1 marsha adept 2156 Jul 19 1991 .
-rw-r—r— 1 marsha adept 2246 Jul 19 1991 ..
