 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      lifls - list contents of a LIF directory

 SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]
      lifls [option] name

 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      lifls lists the contents of a LIF directory on standard output.  The
      default output format lists file names in multiple columns (similar to
      ls(1), except unsorted) if standard output is a character special
      file.  If standard output is not a tty device, the output format is
      one file name per line.  name is a path name to an HP-UX file
      containing a LIF volume and optional file name.  If name is a volume
      name, the entire volume is listed.  If name is of the form
      volume:file, only the file is listed.  The following options are
      available, and only one option should be specified with a given
      command:

           -l      List in long format, giving volume name, volume size,
                   directory start, directory size, file type, file size,
                   file start, "implementation" field (in hex), date
                   created, last volume, and volume number.

           -C      Force multiple column output format regardless of
                   standard output type.

           -L      Return the content of the "last volume flag" in decimal.

           -i      Return the content of the "implementation" field in hex.

           -v      Return the content of the "volume number" in decimal.

           -b blist
                   Report only on files using block numbers specified on the
                   command line in blist, a comma separated list of block
                   numbers in DEV_BSIZE units.

      Do not mount the special file while using lifls.
