DTREE(l)                COMMAND REFERENCE                DTREE(l)



NAME
     dtree - print directory tree structures

SYNOPSIS
     dtree [ -adfglnpsvx ] [ -b filenamesize ] [ -c linelength ]
     [ directory1 ...]

DESCRIPTION
     Dtree is a program to print out the tree structure of
     directories and their children. If no directories are
     specified, dtree takes the current working directory to be
     the top of the tree structure.  It prints out just the
     directory structure by default.  If no flags are specified,
     dtree prints out just the directory structures.  Recognized
     options are as follows:

     -a   Include files in printout (excluding entries beginning
          with '.')

     -b   Take the next argument to be the maximum length of a
          directory name; default is 14 characters, or the value
          associated with a -c argument, if any. any directories
          with names longer than this length will not be
          searched, thus any files and directories within them
          will not be included in the output.

     -c   Take the next argument to be the length of each column
          of the printout. (By default, this is 14, the maximum
          filename length.  Any lengths greater than the column
          width are truncated accordingly, and the last character
          which fits into the column is replaced by an asterisk.)

     -d   List directories first. For each directory, its
          subdirectories will be listed first, and then all its
          other entries.

     -f   List files first. Reverse of -d.

     -l   Long listing. Useful information is printed to the
          right of each entry. The name of the owner, its size in
          blocks, and its mode are printed.

     -g   Same as the -l flag, except that the group name is used
          instead of the owner name. If both the -l and -g flags
          are used, both the owner and group will be printed.

     -n   No sort. Names are listed in the order they are read
          from the directory.

     -p   Include entries beginning with '.' (excluding "." and
          "..").

DTREE(l)                COMMAND REFERENCE                DTREE(l)



     -s   Simplify the long listing. Prints uid, size in blocks,
          and octal mode of the file. This flag implies the -l
          flag unless the -g flag is specified.

     -v   Disable variable length columns.  Normally columns are
          of variable length.  Rather than using the same width
          for each column of output, each column is shortened as
          much as possible without truncating any names.

     -x   Do not cross file systems.  Dtree will not cross over
          to a subdirectory if it is on a different file system.
