Sl (ls with enhancements)
|
|
|
|
sl takes the most common use of Unix ls, to display the files in a
|
|
directory compactly in multiple columns, and makes it substantially
|
|
more useful.
|
|
|
|
sl groups files by purpose so you can mentally organize many files
|
|
quickly; for instance, it collects HTML and PHP files together, as
|
|
opposed to leaving them mixed up with supporting images, CSS, and
|
|
JavaScript. sl points out interesting files, which include those that
|
|
have been recently modified, read relatively recently, are relatively
|
|
large, have warnings, or need to be checked in to or out of version
|
|
control.
|
|
|
|
sl is also aesthetically pleasing due to attention to layout and
|
|
filtering as well as limiting color and text annotations to salient
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
Since there's already an "sl" on SlackBuilds.org (in games/), this is
|
|
called Sl. If you install it on a system that doesn't have games/sl
|
|
installed, a /usr/bin/sl symlink will be created.
|
|
|
|
The ".sl.tcl" referred to in the documentation is installed in the doc
|
|
dir as "sl.tcl.example".
