Hi, And welcome to LQ.

sometimes I find the dir (you might recognise it from any dos experience you may have)

command helps here.

dir --help for more,

dir -D (lists directories of the current folder.)

Hope that helps, Regards, Glenn

you mean display only the directories returned from a search using 'find'?

Try:
Code:
man find
you'll find some good info there!
