SYNOPSIS
vtree [ -d] [ -h # ] [ -i ] [ -s ] [ -q ] [ -v ] [ -V ]
DESCRIPTION
Vtree is a program which scans directories/filesystems and
displays the structure on the standard output. Normally it will
ignore duplicate inodes.
-d Instructs the program to include the duplicate inodes in the
totals.
-h # Specifies how many levels down to display.
-i displays the number of inodes (excluding directories) in each
directory
-s Instructs the program to continue counting inodes and file sizes
when it has exceeded the levels specified.
-t Displays totals at the end of the report
-q Quick display. No totals of any kind are kept.
-v Visual display. Normally the program displays one directory on a
line, indenting lines to indicate subdirectories. The visual
display builds a tree on the screen showing the actual directory
structure. This method of display excludes any totals other than
the final totals.
-V Shows current version. Specifying 2 Vs (-VV) will also show all
options in force.
