[ls] is wicked

Tricks Tips Tools zzz Chatter

I just stomped way down into a chain of scripts to find out that [ls] stopped working.

The culprit?  A file that started with a dash.  How can this problem exist?  And… without me ever having a clue until JUST NOW?

I shall now live my live by rule of dash dash (until I forget):

ls -la -- *.txt

Out with the old, in with the new comma A1 terabyte Samsung SSD to replace the Corsair it that kept preventing my laptop from restoring from sleep for the last couple years. That was fun! Also pulling out the stupid HDD so I get a little more battery life, with a little luck.
