===== Example =====

Issuing a list of files with source code on C language in the long format.

<code bash>
ll *.c
</code>

----

Displays a list of all files in the directory /etc, the names of which can be in variance of the word mount (for example, mount, umount, unmountable).

<code bash>
ll /etc/*mount*
</code>

----

First, the **who** command is executed, where the result is passed to the **awk** command , which cuts out the device name and prefixes it  with **/dev/**.  

As a result, a list of full path names of all terminal devices registered in the system, is passed to the **ls -li** command line.  

The printout returns the information about the inode (inode) for each terminal device due to the **-i** flag.

<code bash>
ll -i `who|awk '{print "/dev/" $2}'`
</code>

----

Displays a long list format all archive files in a directory /lib.  This directory contains library for the system compilers.

<code bash>
ll `kind -a /lib`
</code>

----

Displays all the usual information plus inode number for all files in the directory /dev a page at a time. 

<code bash>
ll -m -i /dev
