I don't understand why the output of ls displays as it does on
lab.srcid.stevens-tech.edu:
jphillip at nemo:~$ ls -1 ./
GNULinux
HW1-jphillip
HW1-jphillip.sav
Maildir
Midterm
NetBSD
backup
jphillip-HW2
jphillip-hw2.tar
junk
test.txt
jphillip at nemo:~$
This isn't sorted alphabetically but the man page states
"List information about the FILEs (the current directory by default).
Sort entries alphabetically if none of -cftuvSUX nor --sort."
Why don't we see the files sorted alphabetically?
Thanks,
Justin
