ls command

[kevin79]

Quick question for you all. How do you get a detailed listing of a directory with the ls command? I want to know the total number of files in a directory.

Thanks!

I think all you have to do is switch to that dir and hit "Tab" twice and it will ask you if you want to display the total # of files. Not sure for the "ls" command though. =/

ls | wc -l
