[kwlug-disc] MKS - really the "lc" command

I can't function without "lc".
So more than a few years ago, I took my copy of lc, and managed to
get it added to the freebsd ports tree:
https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/misc/lc
where it seems to still exist today.
And you can get it yourself here:

There might possibly be some new situations or file types it doesn't
know about, but I use it at least a hundred times a day. There may
be some official UW updates since my copy of course, but I don't
think all the UW/MFCF developed software was ever made available.
I don't need no silly colourized "ls" command - I've got "lc" ready.

| Do you remember the `lc` command? Stands for "list catalog", like `ls` except it separates directories from files. It was one of the utilities written at the University of Waterloo for the Honeywell. MKS Toolkit had a version. I wrote my own version for Unix back in the 1990's and still use it.
