tree(CMD) 19 June 1992 tree(CMD) Name tree - display the directory structure of a path or of the disk in a drive Syntax tree [drive:][path] [/f] [/a] Parameters drive: Specifies the drive that contains the disk for which you want to display the directory structure. path Specifies the directory for which you want to display the directory structure. Switches /f Displays the names of the files in each directory. /a Specifies that tree is to use text characters instead of graphic characters to show the lines linking subdirectories. Use this switch with code pages that do not support graphic characters and to send output to printers that do not properly interpret the graphic characters. Note The structure that tree displays depends upon the parameters you specify on the command line. If you do not specify a drive or path, tree dis- plays the tree structure beginning with the current directory of the current drive. Examples To display the names of all the subdirectories on the disk in your current drive, type the following command: tree \ To display, one screen at a time, the files in all the directories on drive C, type the following command: tree c:\ /f | more To print the same list that the previous example displayed, type the fol- lowing command: tree c:\ /f > prn Related command For information about displaying the contents of a directory, see the dir(CMD) command.
