# Listing Files In IEx
|
|
|
|
When you start an IEx session, you do so in the context of some directory --
|
|
the current working directory. This context can be important if you need to
|
|
do something like import a file. In fact, you may want to know what files
|
|
are available in the current working directory.
|
|
|
|
You can list them all out within IEx using `ls/0`.
|
|
|
|
```elixir
|
|
iex(1)> ls()
|
|
.git .gitignore README.md _build assets config
|
|
deps lib mix.exs mix.lock priv test
|
|
tmp
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also list the contents of some other specific directory by naming it
|
|
when invoking `ls/1`.
|
|
|
|
See `h()` within IEx for more details.
