Good day, ls man reads: -l <skip> *If the output is to a terminal, a total sum for all the file sizes is output on a line before the long listing.* But I have found that ls consistently put "total" in a first line even if output is piped or redirected. As an example: ls -l | cat Is it bug or I missed something? FreeBSD 5.1 Release Thank you, --fedya
