May contain all other options that don't contradict `-l';
may contain even `F', `b', `i' and `s'. See also the variable
`dired-ls-F-marks-symlinks' concerning the `F' switch.
Options that include embedded whitespace must be quoted
like this: \\\"--option=value with spaces\\\"; you can use
`combine-and-quote-strings' to produce the correct quoting of
each option.
On systems such as MS-DOS and MS-Windows, which use `ls' emulation in Lisp,
some of the `ls' switches are not supported; see the doc string of
`insert-directory' in `ls-lisp.el' for more details."
