Try this one. It gives tells you also whether it's a file or a directory.
Put it in a scriptfile and make it executable.

ls -al $1 | nawk '{if (match($1,"d")) 
                    printf("<DIR> %7d %3s %2s %5s %s\n",$5,$6,$7,$8,$9)
                   else
                    printf("      %7d %3s %2s %5s %s\n",$5,$6,$7,$8,$9)}'| more
