Please list the supported `ls' switches in alphabetical order.
The current order is not useful:
 
 "It does not support all `ls' switches -- those
  that work are: A a c i r S s t u U X g G B C R n and F partly."
 
Further, it is not clear what the scope of "partly" is.
Is it only for `F'?
 
It should say:
 
 "a A B c C F g G i n r R s S t u U X  (F is only partly supported)"
 
Better yet, say what "partly supported" means: what is the partial
support? what does not work for `F'?
