The ls command shows the content of a directory or part of it.  To see
the content of a file, use either the cat command or the less command.

For example...

   vaio ~> ls -l /etc/sysconfig/clock
   -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           38 Oct 30  1999 /etc/sysconfig/clock
   vaio ~> cat /etc/sysconfig/clock
   ZONE="US/Pacific"
   UTC=false
   ARC=false
   vaio ~>

The string, "vaio ~> " is my shell prompt.  This computer dual-boots
Linux and Windows 98, so I've set UTC to false.
