- Nice output layout.
- Separated directories, files, directory links and file links.
- Full path output.
- Count of objects inside directories.
What would be good:
- Accept filenames as arguments (just like directory is already supported).
- Add an option --regex, for powerful filtering (like egrep)
- Add an option --recursive and --ignore (or --exclude), allowing the user to make recursive listing while ignoring some directories.
Keep up the nice work. Thanks!
Added regex support for --filter. For instance --filter=re:\\d+
You mean something like what tree displays? Or just to count the items in the directory?
Just the name of the file, like ls. Typing lq file.txt and display nothing looks like the file doesn't exist.

God, you are fast! Thank you!

Forget this silly thing. I tried using find and worked perfectly:
$ find . -type d -exec echo -e "\n$ lq {}" \; -exec lq {} \;
One suggestion I have is to output in justified columns for the non-list output, like how ls does.. gives me a headache to look at everything jumbled together.
And one final note, having short hand command flags is necessary if you want a useful command line tool. Like '-s' short for '--salad' or '-c' for '--count' etc
Added alt support. -s for --salad -c for --count etc. Not all commands have an alt right now.
I say 'should', but that is pretty relative of course. The don't have to, but in order for most people, or at least me, to understand them, they should.
