+ Sls is a program designed to overcome the limitations of the
+ standard UNIX ls(1) program, providing a more consistent
+ interface to file inode information. It is particularly
+ designed for use by shell scripts to make obtaining informa-
+ tion about files easier. It uses printf(3)-style format
+ strings to control the sorting and output of file informa-
+ tion.
