# tree
> Show the contents of the current directory as a tree.
> More information: <https://manned.org/man/tree>.
- Print files and directories up to 'num' levels of depth (where 1 means the current directory):
`tree -L {{num}}`
- Print directories only:
`tree -d`
- Print hidden files too with colorization on:
`tree -a -C`
- Print the tree without indentation lines, showing the full path instead (use `-N` to not escape non-printable characters):
`tree -i -f`
- Print the size of each file and the cumulative size of each directory, in human-readable format:
`tree -s -h --du`
- Print files within the tree hierarchy, using a wildcard (glob) pattern, and pruning out directories that don't contain matching files:
`tree -P '{{*.txt}}' --prune`
- Print directories within the tree hierarchy, using the wildcard (glob) pattern, and pruning out directories that aren't ancestors of the wanted one:
`tree -P {{directory_name}} --matchdirs --prune`
- Print the tree ignoring the given directories:
`tree -I '{{directory_name1|directory_name2}}'`
