Log Message:
Many users needlessly maintain the alias 'l' (or 'll') for 'ls - l'. We should ease the burden on our users and supply a default system which is modern and has a full complement of the features they expect (or even some
they don't -- more features don't hurt any one after all).

Suggested by perry@ in <87wt2uxhbx.fsf%snark.piermont.com@localhost> and submitted for discussion to some NetBSD developers, who suggested that rather than
my own idiosyncratic 'll', 'l' was a much better name.

It may prove possible to merge this code with 'ls' in the future.

That is completely pathetic. Very childish - has to be said.
