Hi,

For directories, ls shows in the time of the directory itself.
Sometimes, it is more important to show the latest time of files in
the directory in addition to the directory time.

Is there an easy way to show such information? Thanks.

You might check out the
"du" program's "--time" option.  I think it does what you want:

--time show time of the last modification of any file in the directory,
             or any of its subdirectories

Also:
  --time=WORD
show time as WORD instead of modification time: atime, access,
             use, ctime or status
