The alias could be in /etc/profile.
Try "alias ls" and see what that tells you.
If there is an alias, you can remove it with "unalias ls".
Also, note that the only difference with the -h option is that the file
size is expressed differently:
$ ls -l tictactoe
-rw-r-xr-- 1 chris disk 10182 Nov 6 17:36 tictactoe
$ ls -lh tictactoe
-rw-r-xr-- 1 chris disk 9.9k Nov 6 17:36 tictactoe
There will be no difference if you do not also use the -l option. This is
true of some other options as well.
