SYNOPSIS

pls [options] [paths...]

DESCRIPTION

pls is a prettier and more powerful replacement for ls designed for human consumption rather than scripting. The "p" in pls stands for pretty, powerful, performant, practical, petite, pliable, and personable. It features Nerd Font icons, rich formatting, flexible column ordering, and a configurable display. Files and directories can be passed as positional arguments.

PARAMETERS

-d, --det COLS

Display detailed file metadata. Columns can be freely ordered based on specification.

CAVEATS

Requires a Nerd Font for icon rendering. Not intended for scripting — use ls for machine-readable output.

HISTORY

pls is maintained by the pls-rs organization and is written in Rust.
