\b ls
\b0 lists the contents of the directory; for each file argument,
\b ls
\b0 repeats its name and any other information requested. By default, the output is sorted alphabetically. When no argument is given, the current directory is listed. When several arguments are given, the arguments are first sorted appropriately, but file arguments are processed before directories and their contents.

MThis variable contains the argument list passed to the script upon execution.
cdpath
hThis variable contains the pathnames of other directories to search for arguments to cd, pushd and popd.
FThis variable contains the full path of the current working directory.
nWhen this variable is set, each command is echoed to the screen before it is executed. It is unset by default.

When this variable is set, the shell won't terminate when it receives an end-of-file character from keyboard input (i.e. a control-D). It is unset by default.
This variable contains the pathname or pathnames the shell will look for electronic mail. If the first word in the wordlist is a number, the shell will check for mail in that number of seconds.
noclobber
When this variable is set, the shell will prevent any redirection from any commands from overwriting an existing file. It will also prevent append operations from creating a file. It is unset by default.
noglob
hWhen this variable is set, the shell will not allow filename expansion to occur. It is unset by default.
nonomatch
When this variable is set, commands that try file expansion and there is no match will not cause the shell to generate an error. It is unset by default.
notify
rWhen this variable is set, the shell will notify users of a job completion asynchronously. It is unset by default.
OThis variable contains the paths that the shell will search to locate commands.
prompt
JThis variable contains the shell prompt string. It's default value is '%'.
savehist
bThis variable contains the number of commands in the history list the shell will save upon logout.
shell
2This variable contains the full path of the shell.
status
AThis variable contains the completion status of the last command.
5This variable contains the name of the terminal type.
This variable contains the maximum amount of time (in seconds) that the shell will allow a command to execute without reporting its usage stats.
verbose
When this variable is set, the shell will display the command (after it has performed the history substitutions but before any other operations).
