help with script

[yodadbl07]

I would like to know how to list directories only without a / at the end. I would like to only see them in my current dir.

for example

ls - d */ gives

dir1/ dir2/ dir3/ dir4/

but is there a way to get only

dir1 dir2 dir3


I need to use it in this foreach loop:

foreach x ( ` ls -d */ ` )
  
     cd $x
  
     set subdir = ` ls -F | grep -c '/$' `
  
     @ subfiles = ` ls -F | wc -l ` - ` ls -F | grep -c '/$' `
  
     echo " There are $subdir directories and $subfiles files in your $x directory. "
     echo "  "
  end

the only problem is that not all the sub directories have a another dir inside them so when it gets to a dir that has no subdir it says that the dir "dirname/" does not exist. can anyone help.
thanks

man test
e.g.: test -d dirname || echo "dirname isn't a directory"

ls -d * | sed 's/\///g' ?
