stat: Same as above but verbose (more similar to Linux's `stat`).
$ stat -x ${filename}
try on your machine
The command "stat -x ${filename}" is used to display the detailed information of a file or a file system.
Here is the breakdown of the command:
- "stat" is a utility command in Unix-like operating systems that displays the detailed information about a file or a file system.
- "-x" is an option or a flag that is used with the "stat" command to display the information in an extended format. It provides additional details beyond the default output format.
- "${filename}" is a placeholder variable that should be replaced with the actual name of the file you want to view the information for. It can be the absolute or relative path to the file.
By running this command, you will get an extended output with details such as the size, type, permissions, timestamps, etc., about the specified file.
