Exa – A Modern Replacement for Ls

What's wrong with "echo *" all of a sudden?

I have used exa for a few weeks. It turns out I like it quite a lot. Not that I am a huge fan of colorcode all the file names, but I do enjoy the inclusion of tree output inside exa command. I have `tree` in my disposal for years, but only use it when I need print out the file structure of a project. Now I use `exa --tree --level 2` religiously.

It's pretty with,

- alias l="exa --tree --level 1 --icons --git-ignore" - alias l2="l --level 2"

and so on

Has completely replaced my 'ls' for a year.

Exa is my favorite! I have this in all of my .bashrc's:

  alias l='exa -alFT -L 1'

"it just worked" but I am worried how well it works on my ADM-5
