No offense, but this question is very hard to understand. What do you
mean by 'ls'?

If you mean the unix command line program then:

a) This is the wrong place for your question.
b) You can't have searched very hard for those two days because
googling for 'ls source code' gives the wikipedia entry for ls as the
first result, from which three versions of ls are directly linked.

source code of ls.

I have been searching two minutes:

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ls+source+code

returns as the top search result a link to:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ls

Which contains an obvious link to:

http://minnie.tuhs.org/UnixTree/V7/usr/src/cmd/ls.c.html

Among the other top 10 google search results were several instances of
people asking the same question.

This is a friendly list, but please don't abuse people's goodwill by
asking questions without doing some basic research first - especially if
those questions do not relate to ruby.

Hmmm. ls --help yields lots of search-worthy verbiage, including "color is
not used to distinguish types of files". Sticking that, with quotes, into
http://www.google.com/codesearch returns:

ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-4.5.5.tar.gz

BTW this group discusses Ruby, which ls _should_not_ be implemented in.

And I feel your pain - I once foolishly attempted to find the source to
'cal', in the days before /el Goog/'s codesearch! On a lark...
