Hi,

With zsh, it's ls -ld *(-/DN) ...but you could do the same with find. Recursively, it's simply find . -type d, but for one layer you'd use something like find . -maxdepth 1 -type d.

Hi,
command to list all files and folders inside a folder recursively:-
ls -aR <directory name>
Also, To output a tree graph of the current directory and all its subdirectories, type:-
tree

In BASH you can us ls. BASH is default for most users in most linux distributions. You can change it but if you are new to linux then chances are you ar using bash. I suggest reading the manual pages (man pages). To view the man pages you open a terminal and type man [command]. so if you wanted to see the man pages for the ls command you would type man ls.

@ AcEg33k: I never knew about the tree command, and I've been using linux for a while. Thanks.
