Seemingly spontaneously, my ls command has stopped working.
$ ls

I tried reinstalling bash and that didn't help. Any suggestions?
Rob:
there could be any number of reasons "ls" won't run. U can't check the
permissions using "ls," but U can check the DACLs using "icacls.exe" or
"cacls.exe" (or, if it still works, "getfacl"). if U're more of a GUI
guy, U can also check the "Security" tab of the Property sheet in
Explorer.
