DirecTree

This script recursively traverses through a specified directory (or defaults to / if no directory is provided) and generates a file tree representation using Unicode characters to depict the hierarchy.

The generated file tree is output to a text file named tree.txt, which is saved in the same directory as the script.

Usage

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/apple-fritter/DirecTree.git

Navigate to the project directory:

cd DirecTree

Run the script:

./tree.sh

If you want to specify a different directory, you can provide the path as an argument:

./tree.sh /path/to/directory

The file tree will be generated, and a file named tree.txt will be created in the same directory as the script.

Example Output

Below is an example output generated by the script:

├─── documents
│   ├─── text_documents
│   │   ├─── notes.txt
│   │   └─── draft.txt
