To: bugs@MIT.EDU
Date: Tue, 20 Oct 1998 15:53:05 EDT
From: Joseph Sokol-Margolis <seph@MIT.EDU>

System name:		opus.mit.edu
Type and version:	IP22 8.2.10 (with mkserv)
Display type:		GR3-XZ

What were you trying to do?
	use ls to display my files, with -F so I can differenciate between
	directories and symlinks

What's wrong:
	ls shows symlinks to directories as directories

What should have happened:
	it should have shown the symlinks as symlinks

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	the man pages?


example:

15:51 opus(25):/tmp/seph/test% ls -F
bar/   bars/  foo    foos@
15:51 opus(26):/tmp/seph/test% gls -F
bar/   bars@  foo    foos@
15:51 opus(27):/tmp/seph/test% which ls
/usr/bin/ls
15:52 opus(28):/tmp/seph/test% which gls
/mit/gnu/arch/sgi_62/bin/gls
