For each file in a .Nm bom , .Nm prints the file path and/or requested information. .Pp If no options are given, .Nm will display the output formatted such that each line contains the path of the entry, its mode (octal), and its UID/GID. There are slight differences in the output for plain files, directories, symbolic links, and device files as follows: .Pp .Bl -tag -width "symbolic links" -indent .It plain files the UID/GID is followed by the file size and a 32-bit CRC checksum of the file's contents. .It symbolic links the UID/GID is followed by the size and checksum of the link path, and the link path itself. .It device files the UID/GID file number is followed by the device number. .El .Pp The .Fl p option can be used to specify a user-defined format for .Nm lsbom's output. The format string consists of one or more characters described below where each character represents a datatype. Datatypes wil be separated by tab characters, and each line will end with a newline character. One can use this mechanism to create output similar to the .Xr ls 1 command. .Pp The options are: .Bl -tag -width -indent .It Fl b list block devices .It Fl c list character devices .It Fl d list directories .It Fl f list files .It Fl l list symbolic links .It Fl m print modified times (for plain files only) .It Fl s print only the path of each file .It Fl x suppress modes for directories and symlinks .It Fl arch Ar archVal when displaying plain files that represent fat mach-o binaries, print the size and checksum of the file contents for the specified archVal (either "ppc" or i386") .It Fl p Ar parameters print only some of the results .Nm Note: each option can only be used once .Bl -tag -compact -width -indent .It c 32-bit checksum .It f file name .It F file name with quotes (ie "/usr/bin/lsbom") .It g group id .It G group name .It m file mode (permissions) .It M symbolic file mode (ie "dr-xr-xr-x") .It s file size .It S formatted size .It t mod time .It T formatted mod time .It u user id .It U user name .It / user id/group id .It ? user name/group name .El .El .Sh EXAMPLES .Bl -tag -width "lsbom -p MUGsf bomfile" -indent .It lsbom bomfile list the contents of bomfile .It lsbom -s bomfile list only the paths of the contents of the bomfile .It lsbom -f -l bomfile list the plain files and symbolic links of the bomfiles (but not directories or devices) .It lsbom -p MUGsf bomfiles list the contents of bomfile displaying only the files' modes, user name, group name, size, and filename .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr bom 5 , .Xr ditto 8 , .Xr mkbom 8 .Sh BUGS .Nm will not read bom files generated on operating systems prior to Mac OS X. .Sh HISTORY The .Nm command appeared in NeXTSTEP as a tool to browse the contents of bom files used during installation. .Pp The .Fl p flag appeared in Mac OS X 10.1 in an attempt to make lsbom's output more convenient for human beings.
