Does ls have a way to show negated conditions like all files which are not a symlink? I use the latter a lot in a project directory but other negations would be useful as well.For now, my research has only lead to creating an alias to something like:find . -maxdepth 1 ! -type l | sort # (...)but obviously this way I don't get the colouring of ls, the column formatting, etc...I am on Bash v3 on OS X 10.8.2 and Bash v4 on Pangolin sometimes.
ls everything that is _not_ a symlink
bash;ls
Instead of piping it to sort, use ls.find . -maxdepth 1 \! -type l -exec ls -d {} +find . -maxdepth 1 \! -type l | xargs ls -dIf you used the zsh shell you could use their non-portable glob extensions:ls -d *(^@)
