Quick listing question
Just a quick question. Is there a command that just lists the folders in a directory. I know of 'ls -p' that shows the directories with a '/' at the end. Though i would just like to have a list of the folders instead of everything else in that folder.
Thanks

NAME
new - report on folders with new messages
fnext - set current folder to next folder with new messages
fprev - set current folder to previous folder with new messages
unseen - scan new messages in all folders with new messages
SYNOPSIS
new [sequences] [-mode mode] [-folders foldersfile] [-version] [-help]
fnext is equivalent to new -mode fnext
fprev is equivalent to new -mode fprev
unseen is equivalent to new -mode unseen
DESCRIPTION
New in its default mode produces a one-line-per-folder listing of all folders containing messages in the listed sequences or in the
sequences listed in the profile entry "Unseen-Sequence". Each line contains the folder, the number of messages in the desired sequences,
and the message lists from the .mh_sequences file. For example:
foo 11.* 40-50
bar 380. 760-772 824-828
total 391.
The `*' on foo indicates that it is the current folder. The last line shows the total number of messages in the desired sequences.
New crawls the folder hierarchy recursively to find all folders, and prints them in lexicographic order. Override this behavior by provid-
ing foldersfile containing the pre-sorted list of folders new should check, one per line.
In fnext and fprev modes, new instead changes to the next or previous matching folder, respectively.
In unseen mode, new executes scan sequences for each matching folder.
FILES
$HOME/.mh_profile The user profile
PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine the user's nmh directory
Current-Folder: To find the default current folder
Unseen-Sequence: The name of the unseen message sequence
