create an alias to list the names of all files in the named
directories that are themselves directories.

It would save time if you just posted all of the test questions at once.

Now, that's not entirely fair. It's probably homework, rather than
a test, wouldn't you think?

man ksh || man bash
man ls
man egrep

Yes, you're probably right. Perhaps I was too harsh. To make up for
it, here's an answer to the original question:

alias alias=alias ^% \\[%4] | wattle -q | zerf

(May not work on all systems.)

If you are using Linux, that should be "gzerf".

And on Solaris you want the POSIX-compliant /usr/xpg4/bin/zerf

Couldn't resist, sorry...

Most recent versions of gzerf also install as zerf, do they not?

True, but I don't like to use the gzerf that comes from the RPM
(/usr/bin/[g]zerf), because I like different defaults (beyond those that
can be set in the .zerfrc file). I build my own from source, and have
/usr/local/bin ahead in the PATH, so that I can trace zerf failures back
to the source.

Oh, I agree, I rarely if ever use someone else's packages. Too many
assumptions for my taste; I very much prefer to roll my own.

What compile options are you using? I'm doing a fairly generic
configuration, but I'd be curious to hear what you've found useful.

My configuration is also fairly generic, but I have found this setup to be
useful:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --nfw=/opt --ssl --ldap \
--perl --pthreads --disable-xbox --enable-zerfsquat \
--wave=hand

Linking in the libzerfsquat.so de* can give useful diagnostics when
you get that occasional zerf burn failure (looks like a flaky zerf-rw
drive to me). I had to make a couple of source changes in the zerf garbage
collection routines as well; before that, running zerf under
valbumpandgrind was finding a few leaks.
