SYNOPSIS
       ntfsls [options] device

       ntfsls  [  -a  |  --all  ]  [ -F | --classify ] [ -f | --force ] [ -h |
       --help ] [ -i | --inode ] [ -l | --long ] [ -p | --path PATH ] [  -q  |

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 parti-
              tion 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 num-
              ber 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 di-
              rectory.

       -s, --system
              Unless this options is specified, all  files  beginning  with  a
              dollar sign character will not be listed as these files are usu-
              ally 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,  in-
              stead of long file names, i.e. files in the WIN32 namespace.
