man ls

> ls -lrt

Note that "-r" and "-R" are not equivalent.
Welcome to UNIX.

And why "t"? Who asked for that?

Hi Venkat ,

It is simple !!! The first command which we learn in Unix - ls :)

ls -R

Perhaps the first command "we" _should_ learn
is "man".

I find it a little scary that anyone would
even ask this question.

What is really scary is that someone marks up HPUX and sundry as "My area(s) of expertise" and still ask that question.

So let's just assume that it the Venkat knows his stuff, but failed to communicate the real question.

Venkat, "What problem are you trying to solve" ?
When you list the directory structures and files, what are you going to do with it?
How will you need to present it or subsequently query this?
Do you need to convey 'depth' or other file attributes, besides the permissions mentioned? For example the owner is needed to make the permissions make sense.

Good luck!
Hein.
