How do I sort the output of "ls" by last modified - including the date?
Check the -l option of ls:
ls -lt
Neat way using stat:
stat -c '%y - %n' * | sort -t'-' -k1,1
Reverse:
stat -c '%y - %n' * | sort -r -t'-' -k1,1
%ywill give the modification time in human readable form,%nwill give file namesortwill sort the values according to only the modiication time
