.SH "NAME"
\fBredwood\fR \-\- Ruby\-flavored tree
.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fBredwood\fR [\fIOPTIONS\fR] \fIDIRECTORY\fR
.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
\fBredwood\fR is an implementation of \fBtree\fR in Ruby. Like the original \fBTree\fR, \fBRedwood\fR is a recursive directory listing program, producing a pretty\-looking depth indented listing of directory contents. Without arguments, \fBredwood\fR lists the files in the current directory. Like \fBtree\fR, after listing, \fBredwood\fR prints a summary of the total number of files and/or directories listed.
.
.P
And, again like the original \fBtree\fR, symbolic links are not followed and hidden files (those beginning with a '.') remain unseen by default. You can reveal them with options. File system constructs, the current directory as '.' and the parent directory as '..', are never printed.
.
.P

.P
This is a proof\-of\-concept. It's written in Ruby. It does half of what \fBtree\fR does pretty well. You should probably just use \fBtree\fR.
.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.
.TP
\fB\-a\fR
  Print all files, even hidden ones (that begin with a '.').
.
.TP
\fB\-d\fR
  Only list directories.
.
.TP
\fB\-l\fR
  Follow symbolic links (that point to directories), as though they were directories. There is no protection from recursion, so don't do that.
.
.TP
\fB\-f\fR
  Print the full path prefix for each file.
.
.TP
\fB\-s\fR
  Print the size of each file in bytes.
.
.TP
\fB\-D\fR
  Print the date of last modification for the file, in the format like: 'Aug 25 14:92'
.
.TP
\fB\-F\fR
  Appends '/' to directories, '@' to symlinks, '=' to sockets, '*' to executables, and '|' to FIFO's, as per ls \-F.
.
.TP
\fB\-L\fR \fIlevel\fR
  Max display depth of the directory tree. Has got to be greater than 0.
.
.P
Other:
.
.TP
\fB\-\-help\fR
  Print the help message and quit.
.
.TP
\fB\-\-version\fR
  Print the \fBredwood\fR version and quit.
