SYNOPSIS
ntfsls [options] device
ntfsls [ -a | --all ] [ -F | --classify ] [ -f | --force ] [ -h |
--help ] [ -i | --inode ] [ -l | --long ] [ -p | --path PATH ] [ -q |
--quiet ] [ -s | --system ] [ -V | --version ] [ -v | --verbose ] [ -x

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.
