In this release:

  • use ISO8601 for date time format
  • sort by time
  • unsorted output option
  • colorized/text output modes for entry types

Full list of features and available flags is in repository readme.

rpi zero binary is still 18KB. It was both challenging and interesting to add new features keeping binary size small.

I don't have an intention to replace ls which is obviously preinstalled, I see fli as a complimentary daily driver.
The north star of the project is to always have smaller binary size than ls , while extending or improving ls functionality

Interesting how much we can achieve with rust.

As for a new features, I see various sorting options could be implemented cheaply. If you have ideas, please share.

If you see ways to squeeze some more bytes, you are welcome.
