+.TP
+\fB\-\-time\-style\fR=\fISTYLE\fR
+with \fB\-l\fR, show times using style STYLE:
+full\-iso, long\-iso, iso, locale, +FORMAT.
+FORMAT is interpreted like `date'; if FORMAT is
+FORMAT1<newline>FORMAT2, FORMAT1 applies to
+non\-recent files and FORMAT2 to recent files;
+if STYLE is prefixed with `posix\-', STYLE
+takes effect only outside the POSIX locale
+.TP
+\fB\-t\fR

+.TP
+\fB\-T\fR, \fB\-\-tabsize\fR=\fICOLS\fR
+assume tab stops at each COLS instead of 8

+\fB\-1\fR
+list one file per line
+.TP
+\fB\-\-help\fR
+display this help and exit
+.TP
+\fB\-\-version\fR
+output version information and exit
+.PP
+SIZE may be (or may be an integer optionally followed by) one of following:
+kB 1000, K 1024, MB 1000*1000, M 1024*1024, and so on for G, T, P, E, Z, Y.
+.PP
+By default, color is not used to distinguish types of files. That is
+equivalent to using \fB\-\-color\fR=\fInone\fR. Using the \fB\-\-color\fR option without the
+optional WHEN argument is equivalent to using \fB\-\-color\fR=\fIalways\fR. With
+\fB\-\-color\fR=\fIauto\fR, color codes are output only if standard output is connected
+to a terminal (tty). The environment variable LS_COLORS can influence the
+colors, and can be set easily by the dircolors command.
+.PP
+Exit status is 0 if OK, 1 if minor problems, 2 if serious trouble.
