DESCRIPTION
pls is a prettier and more powerful replacement for ls designed for human consumption rather than scripting. The "p" in pls stands for pretty, powerful, performant, practical, petite, pliable, and personable. It features Nerd Font icons, rich formatting, flexible column ordering, and a configurable display. Files and directories can be passed as positional arguments.
PARAMETERS
-d, --det COLS
Display detailed file metadata. Columns can be freely ordered based on specification.
INSTALL
nix profile install nixpkgs#pls
CAVEATS
Requires a Nerd Font for icon rendering. Not intended for scripting — use ls for machine-readable output.
HISTORY
pls is maintained by the pls-rs organization and is written in Rust.
