OK, so one way to list number of files in a directory is:
ls | cat -n
one can list the number of subdirectories by
du --max-depth=1 | cat -n
or
find -maxdepth 1 -type d | cat -n
but these two methods list all the hidden directories as well,
.news, .mozilla ...
I tried du --max-depth=1 --exclude '\.*' but it excluded everything
(Guess it treated it as .*).
How can I list only non-hidden subdirectories in a directory?
