Good morning,maybe this is a naive question - but how to distinguish a stub from a file? The command (bash/LINUX) 'ls -l' doesn't show it.RegardsDorothy

Hi @dorota 

 

You can also use “attr -l filename” command to check the extended attributes for a file. If it has “GSTUB”, it’s a stub.

 

Thanks,
