echo `ls -d */ | cut -f 1 -d /` that gets rid of the "/" but then the output is as follows:
e.g. echo `ls -d */ | cut -f 1 -d /` gives
dir1 dir2 dir3 dir4 dir5 dir6 etc
if you use it without the echo and it works fine
ls -d */ | cut -f 1 -d /
dir1
dir2
dir3

Peace

NAME
dircmp - directory comparison
SYNOPSIS
n] dir1 dir2
DESCRIPTION
examines dir1 and dir2 and generates various tabulated information about the contents of the directories. Sorted listings of files that
are unique to each directory are generated for all the options. If no option is entered, a sorted list is output indicating whether the
filenames common to both directories have the same contents.
Compare the contents of files with the same name in
both directories and output a list telling what must be changed in the two files to bring them into agreement. The list
format is described in diff(1).
Suppress messages about identical files.
Change the width of the output line to
n characters. The default width is 72.
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES

the empty string, a default of ``C'' (see lang(5)) is used instead of If any internationalization variable contains an invalid setting,
behaves as if all internationalization variables are set to ``C'' (see environ(5)).
International Code Set Support
Single- and multi-byte character code sets are supported.
EXAMPLES
Compare the two directories and and produce a list of changes that would make the directories identical:
