You probably have ls aliased to 'ls -F', or some combination of options that includes -F. (Check with "alias ls".) Read the documentation for ls to see if there is a different combination of options that gives you the behavior you want. If you can't find it, you can write to bug-coreutils@gnu.org to submit a feature request. paul _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
