Show only subdirectories in command line Linux

Question

As simple as: How to show all sub-directories from current directory in linux?

I didn't find any question as direct as this one on the forum.

Thanks :)

It's probably find you are searching for:

find -type d

This will list all subdirectories of the folder - recursively. If you don't want them recursively then pass maxdepth:

find -maxdepth 1 -type d

also ls -l /* being /*/*... the level of sub directories. – Oscar_Wroclaski Feb 05 '14 at 13:55

If I click the CheckMark it is considered as The correct answer right? sorry for being such a noob :/ – Oscar_Wroclaski Feb 05 '14 at 14:28
:) I meant you can add another answer, answering your own question with that `ls /*/*` . It's ok. While answering his own question isn't welcome too much, it is ok in this situation I think. I would upvote it – hek2mgl Feb 05 '14 at 14:44
Alright! Well in this case I will leave yours as correct. – Oscar_Wroclaski Feb 05 '14 at 14:58
