   Er, Hi.   
      
    >     Here's another easy to use command, ll.   
      
   Interesting thing to point out as a command. It's actually not a Linux command   
   or executable, it's an alias supplied in some shell configurations on *some*   
   Linux distributions.  So, it's not a given that it's in one's version of Linux   
   at all.   
      
   If one is interested if they have it or not, they can use the command: alias   
      
   This will show all the aliases set in their shell.  And they can build their   
   own 'commands' using alias, too.

   Most who?  That would be a clumsy way of using ls when the default without   
   arguments provides a nice layout.  ls -1 is handy when you need to pipe a   
   listing's worth of filenames in to something that parses it.   
      
   I hope this information is useful to some - mostly felt it important to be   
   clear about ll not being an actual command and isn't there on many systems.
