title: POSIX analog of coreutils "stat" command?
body: <p>Coreutils <code>stat</code> have <code>--format=</code> switch which report different info about file (owner, size, etc) in easy form for readers.</p>
  
  <p>POSIX <code>ls</code> utility provide most of this info, but its output is hard to parse. Compare with one-liner:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[ `stat -c '%U' $f` = $USER ] &amp;&amp; echo "You own $f" || echo Error!
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Are there <code>stat</code> utility analog in POSIX?</p>
