This includes all regular file attributes such as size, created date, accessed

It is strongly recommended that you pick which attributes you want printed or
saved to a file
It is also strongly recommended that you pick the widths of the remaining

limit the files scanned
Example: Set the minimum file size to 1,000,000 bytes
