ls is a command to list files, directories and symbolic links in Linux and Unix-like operating systems include in the coreutils package in Ubuntu.

ls
ls -l
ls -lh
ls -lhaR
One line listing with sizes using ls and find: ls -ldh $(find /path/to/search/)
Sort by size:
- ls -lhS
- ls -lR | grep '^-' | sort -rnk5 (sort will not work if ls is used with -h)
- Including full path: ls -ld $(find ./) | sort -rnk5 | more

-su: /bin/ls: Argument list too long

-d list directories themselves, not their contents
