Comand Line Tip: How to List Only Directories
Finding this took over three tries with Google, which means it took too long and that I’ll forget as soon as I need to do it again.
To list only directories in the current directory, this does the trick:
ls -d */
Though it doesn’t make since to me, because the -d option for ls says:
-d Directories are listed as plain files (not searched recursively).
And “ls -d” alone doesn’t do anything for me…but whatever.
There are some other ways discussed here at the Ubuntu log.
