lsd: List all files and directories, including hidden ones, in the current directory.
$ lsd -a
try on your machine

The command "lsd -a" is used to list all files and directories, including hidden ones, in the current directory.

Here's a breakdown of each component:

  • "lsd" represents the "list directory" command on Unix-like systems (like Linux). It is used to display the contents of a directory or specific files within it.
  • "-a" is an option or flag that stands for "all". By including this flag, the "ls" command will show all files, including those that are hidden, starting with a dot (.).

Overall, "lsd -a" will display a list of all files and directories (hidden or not) in the current directory.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
