👉 The amount of space between adjacent text characters.
Alright class, settle down, let’s have a look!
That dictionary definition is… well, it’s
technically
correct, you see. But “ls” in the world of computers, my dears, has a different decree!
“ls” stands for

It's a command that shows you what's there,
Files and folders, beyond compare.
It lists the contents, neat and bright,
A simple tool, a helpful sight!
Think of it like this: when you write with pen,

But “ls” just
shows
you what's bespoke -
The things inside a folder, one by one,
A list of names beneath the sun!
