A modern replacement for ‘ls’.

Ben S 49c1b8ea16 Use a more compact grid view Now the grids are optimised so each column is only as wide as its longest file name. The method could do with some optimising, but at least it works.		2014-12-14 18:30:41 +00:00

Options

-1, --oneline: display one entry per line
-a, --all: show dot files
-b, --binary: use binary (power of two) file sizes
-d, --list-dirs: list directories as regular files
-g, --group: show group as well as user
-h, --header: show a header row
-H, --links: show number of hard links column
-i, --inode: show inode number column
-l, --long: display extended details and attributes
-r, --reverse: reverse sort order

-S, --blocks: show number of file system blocks
-x, --across: sort multi-column view entries across

You can sort by name, size, ext, inode, or none.

Installation

exa is written in Rust. You'll have to use the nightly -- I try to keep it up to date with the latest version when possible. Once you have it set up, a simple cargo build will pull in all the dependencies and compile exa.
