</div>If '-w' is selected, the program will not check whether or not the<br>
character is printable, it will simply print it.<br>
<br>
By default your 'ls -q' should give the same output as (on <a href="http://linux-lab.stevens.edu" target="_blank">linux-lab.stevens.edu</a>):<br>
<br>
/bin/ls ~jschauma/tmp/<br>
<br>
while your 'ls -w' should produce the same as:<br>
<br>
/bin/ls ~jschauma/tmp | cat<br>
