Well, I think it does, actually. With the six or eight columns of
flagging (varied by the presence or absence of -u), and the
possibility of the flag characters also appearing in file names, and
viewed as a need for general filterability rather than any single
use, and such peculiarities as that 'C' and 'M' can appear in either
order, it's getting pretty complicated for one line. Maybe you're a
better grepper than I.
