Hey Nu fans: is there some way to get compact ls output? Like a table of just names. No type, date, size, etc.

ls | select name: will return table
ls | get name: will return list

Sadly that's still not a compact output. The listing is still just as long as before scrolls right off the terminal

You can try changing table style to more compact one. https://www.nushell.sh/book/coloring_and_theming.html#table-borders

Yes, that changes the borders. But it doesn't turn a column into a table. Compare ls /proc in both bash and nu. It's a simple kind of thing that I can't find a solution for in nu.
