And do you just not want to see the contents of any directories or not
see them at all?  Using 'ls -d1' you would see the directory name in
the output, but not the files inside it.

To avoid that, I think you need to use find or some other tool, though
I'm not positive that there isn't a way to do it with ls that I don't
know about.  You could use 'find -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type f'
perhaps.
