Guest clive_j Posted March 19, 2011 Report Posted March 19, 2011 Another noob question? Or at least a noob with another question! Getting to a command prompt using Terminal Emulator the ls command lists the contents of the directory however ls -la gives an error -la: no such file or directory. How can file attributes and permissions be displayed?? CJ

How can file attributes and permissions be displayed?? CJ I've noticed the same behaviour on my Orange San Francisco. The message is very misleading. If for some weird reason google chose to use a cut down version of ls that doesn't support the -a option then why doesn't the error message just say something like unrecognised/unsupported option.
Guest clive_j Posted March 20, 2011 Report Posted March 20, 2011 just ls -l... Doh! Never use just the -l option so didn't think of that. Thanks CJ
