ls -l output

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



OK, this should be an easy fix but I can't find it, and it's strictly  
a cosmetic's issue.

on our older Gentoo systems if you do an ls -a it orders the results  
with all the . files ordered alphabetically then all the non-hidden  
files alphabetically. it also sorts with capitals first.

on the new Centos 5.3 systems ls -a returns all the files sorted  
alphabetically with capital's and smalls being equal and the . at the  
start of a hidden file appears to be ignored.

There are no alias's in place on either system.

eg.)

Gentoo:
------------
$ ls -a
.  ..  .Xauthority  .bashrc  .omega  Documents  alpha  scripts

Centos:
------------
$ ls -a
.  ..  alpha  .bashrc  Documents  .omega  scripts  .Xauthority

I'd prefer to see things the Gentoo way. Any idea's?
