Under what shell is ls being run and is there an alias for ls that is causing this option to be invoked?? If so, are there any other options in the alias? _________________________ This has been my default for years so I give it no thought but doubt it is doing anything unexpected: $ alias ls alias ls='ls -aF' I use bash for terminal interaction, \bin\sh for shell scripts. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
