$ man ls
--author
print the author of each file
$ ls --author
nurd.txt
Therefore the man page isn't accurate unless you place a statement
at top that one must read the whole page first before using anything.
You might as well say "see the Info page" at top instead of bottom.
P.S., empty lines seen intruding:
--dereference-command-line-symlink-to-dir
follow each command line symbolic link
that points to a directory
--sort=WORD
extension -X, none -U, size -S, time -t, version -v
status -c, time -t, atime -u, access -u, use -u
ls (coreutils) 5.2.1
- man pages must still work minimally,
