[ -a | --all ] [ -F | --classify ] [ -f | --force ] [ -h | -? | --help ] [ -i | --inode ] [ -l

ntfsls is used to list
information about the files specified by the PATH option (the root directory
by default). DEVICE is the special file corresponding to the device (e.g
/dev/hdXX).
- -a, --all
- Display all files. If this option is not specified
file names in the POSIX namespace will not be displayed.
- -F, --classify
- Append
indicator (one of */=@|) to entries.
- -f, --force
- Force execution. For example
necessary to run on an NTFS partition stored in a normal file.
- -h, -?, --help
- Print the usage information of ntfsls and exit.
- -i, --inode
- Print inode number
of each file. This is the MFT reference number in NTFS terminology.
- -l, --long
- Use a long listing format.
- -p, --path
- The directory whose contents to list
or the file (including the path) about which to display information.
- -q,
--quiet
- Suppress some debug/warning/error messages.
- -s, --system
- Unless this
options is specified, all files beginning with a dollar sign character
will not be listed as these files are usually system files.
- -V, --version
- Print
the version number of ntfsls and exit.
- -v, --verbose
- Display more debug/warning/error
messages.
- -x, --dos
- Display short file names, i.e. files in the DOS namespace,
instead of long file names, i.e. files in the WIN32 namespace.
- -d, --device DEVICE
- The special file corresponding to the device that contains the NTFS partition
to read. If you want to use an image of an NTFS partition stored on a normal
file, you will also need to specify the -f or --force options.
