Note the files and folders are displayed in a row. Directories display in blue and have a trailing slash. You can use the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/server\/linux\/using-the-linux-cd-command\/\">cd command<\/a> to change to a different folder or directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre>ls<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The results will look similar to this, but keep in mind it will differ based on your specific files:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<code> .\/  ..\/  error_log images\/  index.php  testfile.txt<\/code>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using the Long List Option<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the more common switches, the long listing (-l) displays much more data than the base command. It displays the permissions, the owner, group, size, date last modified, and the name of the file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre>ls -l<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<code>total 32<br>\n\u00a0drwxr-xr-x  3 root    root     4096 Jun  3 10:19 .\/<br>\n\u00a0drwxr-x--- 25 root    root     4096 Jun  3 10:16 ..\/<br>\n\u00a0-rw-r--r--  1 root    root     12523 May  5 13:29 error_log<br> \n\u00a0drwxr-xr-x  2 root    root     4096 Jun  3 10:19 images\/<br>\n\u00a0-rw-r--r--  1 root    root       52 May  5 13:29 index.php<br>\n\u00a0-rw-r--r--  1 root    root        0 Jun  3 10:15 testfile.txt<\/code>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">List All Files Including Hidden<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to view all the files including ones that are hidden such as the .htaccess you can use the all option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre>ls -a<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>You will then see all of your files listed, including hidden files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<code>.    \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0  .cache    .dmrc       .gconf     .gnupg       .htaccess    .ICEauthority<br>                                 \u00a0.local  .putty    test.txt    .var       .wget-hsts   .zoom<\/code>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\">\n\n\n\n<p>Congratulations, you should now know the basics of using the ls command in Linux.
