Re: Wildcards

[dlauder@acsworld.net (David Lauder)]

For directories, try:

    ls -lF | grep "/$"
or:
    ls -l | grep "^d"

You could create an alias for this in your .bash_profile as "lsd":

    alias lsd='ls -lF | grep "/$"'


For executables, try:

    ls -lF | grep "*$"

 And alias it as "lsx":

    alias lse='ls -lF | grep "*$"'

Do a "man ls" and "man grep" and experiment with some of the other
options.
