hpls list the contents of a directory on an HFS+ volume
hpls [options] [hfs-path ...]
hpls is used to list files and directories on
an HFS+ volume. If one or more arguments are given, each file
or directory is shown; otherwise, the contents of the current
working directory are displayed.
"-1"
Each entry appears on a line by itself. This is the
default if standard output is not a terminal.
"-a"
All entries are shown, including "invisible"
files. The default is to omit invisible files.
"-c"
Sort and display entries by their creation date, rather
than their modification date.
"-d"
List directory entries themselves rather than their
contents. Normally the contents are shown for named
directories on the command-line.
"-i"
Show the catalogue ID for each entry. Every file and
directory on an HFS+ volume has a unique catalogue ID.
"-l"
Display entries in long format. This format shows the
entry type ("d" for directory, "f" for
file, "F" for locked file), flags ("i"
for invisible), type and creator (four-character strings)
for files only, size (number of items in a directory or
resource and data bytes of a file, respectively), date of
last modification (or creation if the -c flag is given), and name.
"-m"
Display entries in a continuous format separated by
commas.
"-q"
Replace special and non-printable characters in displayed
filenames with question marks (?). This is the default
when standard output is a terminal.
"-r"
Sort entries in reverse order before displaying.
"-s"
Show the file size for each entry in 1K block units. The
size includes blocks used for both data and resource
forks.
"-t"
Sort and display entries by time. Normally files will be
sorted by name. This option uses the last modification
date to sort unless -c is also specified.
"-x"
Display entries in column format like -C,
but sorted horizontally into rows rather than columns.
"-w
Format output lines suitable for display in the given
width. Normally the width will be determined from your
terminal, from the environment variable
COLUMNS, or from a default value of 80.
"-C"
Display entries in column format with entries sorted
vertically. This is the default output format when
standard output is a terminal.
"-F"
Cause certain output filenames to be followed by a
single-character flag indicating the nature of the
entry; directories are followed by a slash "/"
and executable Macintosh applications are followed by an
asterisk "*".
"-N"
Cause all filenames to be output verbatim without
question-mark substitution.
"-R"
For each directory that is encountered in a listing,
recursively descend into and display its contents.
