NAME
     ntfsls - list directory contents on an NTFS filesystem

SYNOPSIS
     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

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 corre-
     sponding 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  op-
     tions  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  direc-
	    tory.

     -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.
