 Unix Tip #4542- August 18, 2025
 
JUST THE DIRECTORIES  
  
It useful to be able to list all directories in  
the current directory without any of the files.  
  
ls -l | grep "^d"  
  
Alias it by adding this in your .login  
or .profile or .cshrc files in your home directory:  
  
alias dir 'ls -l | grep "^d"'
