NAME

ddir - display hierarchical directory tree

SYNOPSIS

  ddir [options] [DIR]

DESCRIPTION

Display an indented directory tree using ASCII graphical characters to represent the hierarchical structure. The directories to include or exclude can be specified with command line options. Ddir is a Perl implementation of the tree(1) program. The extra "d" in front of name was used to differentiating the utility from an existing dir(1) program.

OPTIONS

Display only directories.
Print text help
Print default exclude path value when --exclude-vcs is used.
Print help in HTML format.
Print help in manual page man(1) format.
Include files matching regexp. The match is done against whole path. The option can be used multiple times.

If this option is not supplied, every file is automatically included. The matches can be further filtered by using options --exclude.

Print informational messages. Increase numeric LEVEL for more verbosity.
Print contact and version information.
Ignore files matching regexp. The match is done against whole path. The option can be used multiple times.

This option is applied after possible --include matches.

Exclude version control directories. See --help-exclude.
