How to create ls in windows command prompt?

Question

I want to use ls in windows command prompt and make it run the dir command.

How can I do that?

Answer 1

Another solution that worked for me is to use UnxUtils, which adds multiple utilities from executable files (including ls, sed, and grep).

To use: download source code. Unzip. Add the UnxUtils\usr\local\wbin path to the Windows PATH variable. Start a new CMD instance.
