# The sysutils/lr port

## lr-1.6 – list files, recursively

## Description

    lr is a tool for generating file listings, which includes the best features
    of ls(1), find(1), stat(1) and du(1).

    Benefits over find:
    * friendly and logical C-style filter syntax
    * getopt is used, can mix filters and arguments in any order
    * can sort
    * compute directory sizes
    * can strip leading ./
    * can do breadth first search

    Benefits over ls:
    * sorts over all files, not per directory
    * copy & paste file names from the output since they are relative to pwd
    * ISO dates
    * powerful filters
