[comp.unix.wizards] [wanted] ldir: csh alias that lists dirs only

ead@cup.portal.com (Eric De Mund) (04/14/90)

dear wizards,

i'd like a csh alias that lists dir names only. i've come up with:
    % alias ldir '/bin/ls -1aF \!* | fgrep "/" | pr -5 -l1 -t'
but there's got to be something better. one thing i don't like about
the above is that dir names are listed alphabetically by row rather
than by column. suggestions welcomed.

eric

Such as postpending a slash to the preglobbed name?
