       ntfsls  [  -a  |  --all  ]  [ -F | --classify ] [ -f | --force ] [ -h |

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.
