%u User ID of owner %U User name of owner %x Time of last access %X Time of last access as seconds since Epoch %y Time of last modification %Y Time of last modification as seconds since Epoch %z Time of last change %Z Time of last change as seconds since Epoch

-t, --field-separator=SEP use SEP instead of non-blank to blank transition -T, --temporary-directory=DIR use DIR for temporaries, not $TMPDIR or %s; multiple options specify multiple directories -u, --unique with -c, check for strict ordering; without -c, output only the first of an equal run

the --context (-Z) option is obsolete and will be removed in a future release

%h Number of hard links %i Inode number %n File name %N Quoted file name with dereference if symbolic link %o I/O block size %s Total size, in bytes %t Major device type in hex %T Minor device type in hex

-t, --text read in text mode (default if reading tty stdin)

truncating %s at %<PRIdMAX> bytes

-k, --key=POS1[,POS2] start a key at POS1 (origin 1), end it at POS2 (default end of line) -m, --merge merge already sorted files; do not sort

-a, --all include dummy file systems -B, --block-size=SIZE use SIZE-byte blocks --total produce a grand total -h, --human-readable print sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M 2G) -H, --si likewise, but use powers of 1000 not 1024

-b, --binary read in binary mode

warning: the --%s option is obsolete; use --reference

-c, --check read %s sums from the FILEs and check them

you must specify one of %s or %s

Note that the -r and -s options are mutually exclusive.

WARNING: --preserve_context is deprecated; use --preserve-context instead

-c, --check, --check=diagnose-first check for sorted input; do not sort -C, --check=quiet, --check=silent like -c, but do not report first bad line --compress-program=PROG compress temporaries with PROG; decompress them with PROG -d --files0-from=F read input from the files specified by NUL-terminated names in file F; If F is - then read names from standard input

-x, --one-file-system skip directories on different file systems -X, --exclude-from=FILE exclude files that match any pattern in FILE --exclude=PATTERN exclude files that match PATTERN --max-depth=N print the total for a directory (or file, with --all) only if it is N or fewer levels below the command line argument; --max-depth=0 is the same as --summarize

%C century; like %Y, except omit last two digits (e.g., 20) %d day of month (e.g, 01) %D date; same as %m/%d/%y %e day of month, space padded; same as %_d

-t sort by modification time -T, --tabsize=COLS assume tab stops at each COLS instead of 8

-b, --binary read in binary mode (default unless reading tty stdin)

List information about the FILEs (the current directory by default). Sort entries alphabetically if none of -cftuvSUX nor --sort.

Copy a file, converting and formatting according to the operands. bs=BYTES read and write BYTES bytes at a time (also see ibs=,obs=) cbs=BYTES convert BYTES bytes at a time conv=CONVS convert the file as per the comma separated symbol list count=BLOCKS copy only BLOCKS input blocks ibs=BYTES read BYTES bytes at a time (default: 512)

-a, --suffix-length=N use suffixes of length N (default %d) -b, --bytes=SIZE put SIZE bytes per output file -C, --line-bytes=SIZE put at most SIZE bytes of lines per output file -d, --numeric-suffixes use numeric suffixes instead of alphabetic -l, --lines=NUMBER put NUMBER lines per output file

creating hard link to %.0s%s

noerror continue after read errors sync pad every input block with NULs to ibs-size; when used with block or unblock, pad with spaces rather than NULs fdatasync physically write output file data before finishing fsync likewise, but also write metadata

extra operand %s

-t, --text read in text mode (default)

-r, --reference=FILE use this FILE's size -s, --size=SIZE use this SIZE

-l, --link link files instead of copying -L, --dereference always follow symbolic links in SOURCE

-B, --block-size=SIZE use SIZE-byte blocks -b, --bytes equivalent to `--apparent-size --block-size=1' -c, --total produce a grand total -D, --dereference-args dereference only symlinks that are listed on the command line

%k hour ( 0..23) %l hour ( 1..12) %m month (01..12) %M minute (00..59)

The following three options are useful only when verifying checksums: --quiet don't print OK for each successfully verified file --status don't output anything, status code shows success -w, --warn warn about improperly formatted checksum lines

%z +hhmm numeric timezone (e.g., -0400) %:z +hh:mm numeric timezone (e.g., -04:00) %::z +hh:mm:ss numeric time zone (e.g., -04:00:00) %:::z numeric time zone with : to necessary precision (e.g., -04, +05:30) %Z alphabetic time zone abbreviation (e.g., EDT) By default, date pads numeric fields with zeroes.

%s-blocks Used Available Capacity

nocreat do not create the output file excl fail if the output file already exists notrunc do not truncate the output file ucase change lower case to upper case swab swap every pair of input bytes

creating hard link %s

creating symbolic link %s

creating hard link %s => %s

creating symbolic link %s -> %s

-a, --archive same as -dR --preserve=all --backup[=CONTROL] make a backup of each existing destination file -b like --backup but does not accept an argument --copy-contents copy contents of special files when recursive -d same as --no-dereference --preserve=links
