tre – tree command, improved

tre is a modern alternative to the tree command.

tre provides a -e flag that, when used, turns on the “editor aliasing” feature. Some shell configuration will make this work better.

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

  • Lists directory structure in a tree-like diagram, like the classics.
  • Skips ignored files in git repositories per .gitignore setting.
  • Creates shell aliases for each listing that opens the files for you.
  • Output in colors, respecting LS_COLORS settings when they exist.
