How can I make ls only display files?

Is it possible to force lsd to show only files?

Hi @Jorysm

I tried some outputs and the way I use it, is a bit quirky.

lsd -ahl | grep -v d

The lsd-Parameter -a should be used along with -l (-la).

The colors are lost by grep with the -v Parameter (exclude).
I think (haven't read the man for grep) the -v Parameter output only colourizes the matches of the Pattern (here: d).
The Pattern should be more precise only the first character should be used: lsd -ahl | grep -v "^d"

# with the following alias set: alias ls="lsd"
# -v "^d" --> exclude by matching the first character d
ls -ahl | grep -v "^d"

# minimalistic variation
ls | grep -v /

# matching in long format the first character of . (dot)
# parameter for grep -i (inclusion)
ls -ahl | grep -i "^\." --color=always

There could be a solution for the coloring, but I have no clue atm.
