DESCRIPTION

       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) or an NTFS image file.

OPTIONS

       Below is a summary of all the options that ntfsls accepts.  Nearly all options have two equivalent names.
       The  short  name  is  preceded by - and the long name is preceded by --.  Any single letter options, that
       don't take an argument, can be combined into a single command, e.g.  -fv is equivalent to  -f  -v.   Long
       named options can be abbreviated to any unique prefix of their name.

       -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 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.

       -R, --recursive
              Show the contents of all directories beneath the specified directory.

       -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, --verbose
              Display more debug/warning/error messages.

       -V, --version
              Print the version number of ntfsls and exit.

       -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.
