Bash to list all folders in a specific directory

The below bash is trying to list the folders in a specific directory. It seems close but adds the path to the filename, which basename could strip off I think, but not sure why it writes the text file created? This list of folders in the directory will be used later, but needs to only be the folder names. Thank you Smilie.

Bash
Code:
#!/bin/bash
dir="/home/cmccabe/Desktop/tetsfolder/"
for file in ${dir}/*
  do  
    echo "$file"
  done > /home/cmccabe/Desktop/tetsfolder/list

folders in /home/cmccabe/Desktop/tetsfolder
Code:
f1
f2
f3

current output
Code:
/home/cmccabe/Desktop/tetsfolder/f1
/home/cmccabe/Desktop/tetsfolder/f2
/home/cmccabe/Desktop/tetsfolder/f3
/home/cmccabe/Desktop/tetsfolder/list

desired output
Code:
f1
f2
f3

Desktop::Notify(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				      Desktop::Notify(3pm)

NAME
Desktop::Notify - Communicate with the Desktop Notifications framework VERSION
Version 0.03 SYNOPSIS
use Desktop::Notify; # Open a connection to the notification daemon my $notify = Desktop::Notify->new(); # Create a notification to display my $notification = $notify->create(summary => 'Desktop::Notify', body => 'Hello, world!', timeout => 5000); # Display the notification $notification->show(); # Close the notification later $notification->close(); DESCRIPTION
This module provides a Perl interface to the Desktop Notifications framework. The framework allows applications to display pop-up notifications on an X desktop. This is implemented with two components: a daemon that displays the notifications, and a client library used by applications to send notifications to the daemon. These components communicate through the DBus message bus protocol. More information is available from <http://trac.galago-project.org/wiki/DesktopNotifications> This module serves the same purpose as "libnotify", in an object-oriented Perl interface. It is not, however, an interface to "libnotify" itself, but a separate implementation of the specification using Net::DBus. METHODS
new %opts Connect to the notification daemon. %opts can include the following options: app_name The application name to use for notifications. Default is "basename($0)" bus The Net::DBus mesage bus to use. Default is to call Net::DBus->session, which is usually where notification-daemon can be reached. service The DBus service name of the daemon. Default is org.freedesktop.Notifications. objpath The path to the notifications DBus object. Default is /org/freedesktop/Notifications. objiface The DBus interface to access the notifications object as. Default is org.freedesktop.Notifications. create %params Creates a new notification object that can be displayed later. This will return a Desktop::Notify::Notification object; see that module for information about using it. close_callback $coderef Sets a user-specified function to be called whenever a notification is closed. It will be called with one argument, which is the Notification object that was just closed. AUTHOR
