Syntax

The syntax for lst calls is:

lst(param)
lst param

@lst(param)
@lst param

Description

The lst function is for listing files in a directory, it takes zero parameters or a single parameter specifying which directory to list files for.

Note: Paths can be unoquoted, single quoted or double quoted.

Note: When writing to the console Nift will skip to the first non-whitespace (ie. to the first character that is not a space, tab or newline) after a lst call and inject it to the output file where the call started. If you want to prevent Nift from doing this put a '!' after the call, eg.:

@lst ~/;!
@lst(~/)!
