get rid of '/' in the ls -d */ command


I want to grep all directory name in the current folder into a file.
I use ls -d */ >file.txt

It will append the "/" at the end of the directory name.
Is there a way to get rid of this?

You could do:
Code:
ls -d */ | sed 's/\///g'

Try this out:
Code:
ls -d */ | tr -d '\/'
It will remove the '/' at the end. This command string will put each directory on it's own line, which may or may not be what you want.

Although I think someone got this thread first with a sed command, which basically does the same thing. 'Toe mato' vs 'to ma to'.
