Ls

In computing, ls is a command to list files in Unix and Unix-like operating systems. ls is specified by POSIX and the Single UNIX Specification.

An ls utility appeared in the original version of AT&T UNIX. Today, two popular versions of ls are the Free Software Foundation's (part of the GNU coreutils package) and the one released by various BSD variants, such as FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and Apple Computer's Darwin. Both are free software and open source.

Unix and Unix-like operating systems maintain the idea of a current working directory, that is, where one is currently positioned in the hierarchy of directories.

When invoked without any arguments, ls lists the files in the current working directory. A directory that is not the current working directory can be specified and ls will list the files there. The user also may specify any list of files and directories. In this case, all files and all contents of specified directories will be listed.

Files whose names start with "." are not listed, unless the -a flag is specified, the -A flag is specified, or the files are specified explicitly.

Tainted

I remember when I was just a little child
I remember when all of this felt so alive
I remember when I could see and I could smile
I remember when I would hope and I would try
I remember when I would stare out at the miles
I remember when I could fall deep in blue skies
I remember when I was just a little child
I remember when all of this felt so alive
now I look around and all of this just feels like nothing
now I look around and all of this is so declined
now I look around and wonder why my heart feels nothing
now I look around and wonder why the blue skies died
now I look around, I realize that I've been tainted
now I look around, I see the world through blurry eyes
now I look around and all of this just feels like nothing
now I look around and all of this is so declined
