Using "ls"

[iceblister]

Hey everyone - I'm a total newbie to Linux. I just installed Kubuntu and everything is working now..

Now im just playing around with things. This is what I need to do:

I need to 'somehow' get the output of every file in my home directory to look like this:

Name - Accessed Date - Modified Date - Size - Permissions - File Type


How do I do this? Also - How do I mount my flash drive so I can bring that output to windows?

Thanks! I need the answer asap!

Does the format have to be exactly like that? If you just want the information, and don't really care about the order, the command you're looking for is ls -l (long listing). ls -lh could be even better, as it will write the size of files in a "human readable" format (MB, GB, etc.) If you want more info about ls, just read the manual: man ls.

Also - How do I mount my flash drive so I can bring that output to windows?

Not sure about the exact synatax, as I don't have a flash drive, but read the manual page for the mount command (man mount) .
