By default, when a symbolic link is encountered, the path that the symbolic
link refers to is printed after the name of the link in the format:
Tag | Description |
--help |
Outputs a verbose usage listing.
|
--version |
|
Outputs the version of tree.
|
-a |
All files are printed. By default tree does not print hidden files (those
beginning with a dot .). In no event does tree print the file system
constructs . (current directory) and .. (previous directory).
|
-d |
List directories only.
|
-f |
Prints the full path prefix for each file.
|
-i |
Makes tree not print the indentation lines, useful when used in conjunction
with the -f option.
|
-l |
Follows symbolic links if they point to directories, as if they were
directories. Symbolic links that will result in recursion are avoided when
detected.
|
-x |
Stay on the current file-system only. Ala find -xdev.
|
-P pattern |
|
List only those files that match the wild-card pattern. Note: you must use
the -a option to also consider those files beginning with a dot . for
matching. Valid wildcard operators are * (any zero or more characters), ? (any
single character), [...] (any single character listed between brackets (optional -
(dash) for character range may be used: ex: [A-Z]), and [^...] (any single character
not listed in brackets) and | separates alternate patterns.
|
-I pattern |
|
Do not list those files that match the wild-card pattern.
|
--noreport |
|
Omits printing of the file and directory report at the end of the tree
listing.
|
-p |
Print the protections for each file (as per ls -l).
|
-s |
Print the size of each file along with the name.
|
-u |
Print the username, or UID # if no username is available, of the file.
|
-g |
Print the group name, or GID # if no group name is available, of the file.
|
-D |
Print the date of the last modification time for the file listed.
|
--inodes |
|
Prints the inode number of the file or directory
|
--device |
|
Prints the device number to which the file or directory belongs
|
-F |
Append a / for directories, a = for socket files, a * for executable files
and a | for FIFOs, as per ls -F
|
-q |
Print non-printable characters in filenames as question marks instead of the default
caret notation.
|
-N |
Print non-printable characters as is instead of the default caret notation.
|
-r |
Sort the output in reverse alphabetic order.
|
-t |
Sort the output by last modification time instead of alphabetically.
|
--dirsfirst |
|
List directories before files.
|
-n |
Turn colorization off always, over-ridden by the -C option.
|
-C |
Turn colorization on always, using built-in color defaults if the LS_COLORS
environment variable is not set. Useful to colorize output to a pipe.
|
-A |
Turn on ANSI line graphics hack when printing the indentation lines.
|
-S |
Turn on ASCII line graphics (useful when using linux console mode fonts). This
option is now equivalent to --charset=IBM437 and will eventually be
depreciated.
|
-L level |
|
Max display depth of the directory tree.
|
-R |
Recursively cross down the tree each level directories (see -L
option), and at each of them execute tree again adding -o 00Tree.html
as a new option.
|
-H baseHREF |
|
Turn on HTML output, including HTTP references. Useful for ftp sites.
baseHREF gives the base ftp location when using HTML output. That is, the local
directory may be /local/ftp/pub, but it must be referenced as
ftp://hostname.organization.domain/pub (baseHREF should be
ftp://hostname.organization.domain). Hint: dont use ANSI lines with this option,
and dont give more than one directory in the directory list. If you wish to
use colors via CCS stylesheet, use the -C option in addition to this option
to force color output.
|
-T title |
|
Sets the title and H1 header string in HTML output mode.
|
--charset charset |
|
Set the character set to use when outputting HTML and for line drawing.
|
--nolinks |
|
Turns off hyperlinks in HTML output.
|
-o filename |
|
Send output to filename.
