I see many questions on this site on ls
sorting
But what I need is a sorted output ls -ltr
(sorted by file name)
Because I need the file sizes and dates as well for comparison.
I tried | sort -k
, | sort
, ls-1ltr
without success.
This is the unsorted list:
ser@xeroxsqa02:/app/java/jars> ls -ltr
total 41940

Have you tried following:
ls -lru
Per man page:
-u
with-lt
: sort by, and show, access time; with-l
: show access time and sort by name; otherwise: sort by access time, newest first
