To this end I made a simple script, `latest`, which is, essentially, `ls -lt $@ | head`.

- jmholla 2y agoI know you're showing a rough example, but others might want to throw a `-d` in there so that folders don't get expanded. And put `$@` in quotations so spaced file names don't get interpreted as separate arguments. i.e.: ls -ltd "$@" | head edit: `-d` may be a bad choice. It also results in directories being listed first on my system, even with `-t` passed. edit 2: That was an alias I had setup. Carry on with the `-d`.
