tree

Show the contents of the current directory as a tree. More information: http://mama.indstate.edu/users/ice/tree/.

• Print files and directories up to 'num' levels of depth (where 1 means the current directory):

tree -L {{num}}

• Print directories only:

tree -d

• Print hidden files too with colorization on:

tree -a -C

• Print the tree without indentation lines, showing the full path instead (use -N to not escape whitespace and special characters):

tree -i -f

• Print the size of each node next to it, in human-readable format, with directories displaying their cumulative size (as in the du command):

tree -s -h --du

• Print files within the tree hierarchy, using a wildcard (glob) pattern, and pruning out directories that don't contain matching files:

tree -P '{{*.txt}}' --prune

• Print directories within the tree hierarchy, using the wildcard (glob) pattern, and pruning out directories that aren't ancestors of the wanted one:

tree -P {{directory_name}} --matchdirs --prune

• Print the tree ignoring the given directories:

tree -I '{{directory_name1|directory_name2}}'
