Simple sh or alias to list directories

Hello, I am trying to determine an easy alias or sh script that will list only the directories in a directory. It should have similar functionality to the ls command. E.g. [tom]$ lsd ~ should list only the directories in my home folder, not the files. Does anyone know of a way to do this

note that it won't list links to directories, you might want to use -follow see below: panther:~/rrrl total 6 drwxr-xr-x 2 esteffl pbidev 512 Oct 17 09:15 dir lrwxrwxrwx 1 esteffl pbidev 3 Oct 17 09:15 dir.link - dir -rw-r--r-- 1 esteffl pbidev14 Oct 17 09:15

Re: Simple sh or alias to list directories

using -d for this is confusing like hell because -d is 'well known' switch in standard unix ls - it lists directory as if it were file, i.e. does not list the content of the directory (useful with -l), it has no effect on files (they are listed just like they would be without -d) erik
