    Hey,
      Does anybody know how to find the specific information included in the file
    descriptor in Linux. When a file is created, the file manager creates a file
    descriptor, in which it stores detailed information about the file. But I do
    not know where I can find this detailed information? Does command ls -l
    display all the information included in the file descriptor.
      Does anybody can help me?
      Thanks in advance
