Sometimes I need one of those fancy directory overview-ish examples for a peace of writing - be it docs or new article. Here’s a tool which can help with that. Say hi to tree. Installation I’m guessing for the non-mac part here: # mac: $ brew install tree # ubuntu-ish $ sudo apt-get install tree Usage $ tree PATH_YOU_CARE_ABOUT $ tree . This will spit out a nice shiny overview of the directory in question!
