ntfsls - list directory contents on an NTFS filesystem
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 | --dos ] device
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.
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.
