From the original Amiga UNIX 2.1 manual. Some things it mentions may not be in this release.

NAME

ff (generic) - list file names and statistics for a file system

SYNOPSIS

ff [-F FSType] [-V] [current_options] [-o  specific_options]
special ...

DESCRIPTION

ff reads the files and directories of the special file. I-node data is saved for files which match the selection criteria which is either the inode number and/or inode age. Output consists of the path name and other file information. Output fields are positional. The output is produced in inode order. The default line produced by ff is:

path-name i-number

current_options are options supported by the s5-specific module of ff. Other FSTypes do not necessarily support these options. specific_options indicate suboptions specified in a comma-separated list of suboptions and/or keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation by the FSType-specific module of the command.

The options are:

-F Specify the FSType on which to operate. The FSType should either be specified here or be determinable from /etc/vfstab by matching the special with an entry in the table.

-V Echo the complete command line, but do not execute the command. The command line is generated by using the options and arguments provided by the user and adding to them information derived from /etc/vfstab. This option should be used to verify and validate the command line.

-o Specify FSType-specific options.

NOTE

This command may not be supported for all FSTypes.

FILES
