Ah.
I have another idea. If the reason you are using "-l" is
because you want the details of each listed directory, then
I don't see a way to do it, except to write a patch for a
new option for 'cls' which will list only directories.
But! If the reason you are using the "-l" is only to get
the 'd' at the front of the line so you can match it with
grep, and if what you -really- want is just the names of
all the directories inside of $1, $2, $3, etc., then these
sorts of commands might give you what you want:
lftp somesite.org:/> glob -d echo *
lftp somesite.org:/> glob -d echo */*
lftp somesite.org:/> glob -d echo a*/*
lftp somesite.org:/> glob -d echo b*/*
lftp somesite.org:/> glob -d echo backup*/*
In other words, the above commands -do- filter so that what
they return are directories, but the above commands -do not-
put the results one-per-line.
