no, it isn't, try the -d switch:
dionysus: {1022} mkdir testdir
dionysus: {1023} touch testdir/file1
dionysus: {1024} touch testdir/file2
dionysus: {1025} touch testdir/file3
dionysus: {1026} ls -laFd testdir
drwxr-xr-x 2 root users 512 Jun 22 20:14 testdir/
dionysus: {1027} ls -laF testdir
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root users 512 Jun 22 20:14 ./
drwxr-xr-x 3 root users 512 Jun 22 20:14 ../
-rw-r--r-- 1 root users0 Jun 22 20:14 file1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root users0 Jun 22 20:14 file2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root users0 Jun 22 20:14 file3
dionysus: {1028}

dionysus: {1030} man ls
-d Directories are listed as plain files (not searched
recursively)
and symbolic links in the argument list are not indirected
through.

But now I can't figure out two things: [1] If I'm in a directory, and do "ls -alF" and see for example: drwx-- 2 pete users 512 Jun 22 13:41 myfiles/ What "ls" command can I do IN THE CURRENT WORKING DIRECTORY to just see the "myfiles/" listing?

Include . files - ls -a Don't recurse - DON'T include -R Inode change time - ls -lc Last modified - ls -l Last accessed - ls -lu Note that there is no "creation time" - it's actually just the inode change time. So it will change when you make a new link to the file, for example, or when you set any of the file's times other than last modified, with `touch'. -- Josh > > PS - PLEASE CC: ME IN YOUR REPLY > > -- > Peter Leftwich > President & Founder, Video2Video Services > Box 13692, La Jolla, CA, 92039 USA > http://Www.Video2Video.Com > ___ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I was aware of and often use the -t switch (in a tcsh alias), but these have to do with sorting. What if I wanted to see (maybe not as output from a single command but a few) the creation date, last modification date, and last access time for a directory?
