Errors on page ls

[fipachu]

A few of the examples on page ls say they list all files, but they don't include "-a", and therefore don't actually list all files.

I didn't know how to report this so I'm starting a discussion, I hope it's ok.

Hi, thanks for starting the discussion. It is intentional as the flag -a is only required for displaying hidden files (files starting with a period), which are meant to be hidden from the user. (And in most cases it isn't recommended for the general user to see it as they might delete the file unintentionally.) [Developers might prefer to see the hidden files so for them the page includes 2 examples with the flag while explaining other essential flags]
