Usage

• Run dftree in your directory

• To specify a depth level, use the -L option:

  dftree -L 2
  

  This will display the file tree up to the specified depth level.

Options

• -L <depth>: Set the maximum depth level for the file tree.

Output

The script will display the file tree using Unicode box-drawing characters. Each directory is represented by a folder icon (├──) and each file is represented by a file icon (├── filename).

If a depth level is specified, the script will also display the number of visible files, hidden files, visible directories, hidden directories, and the overall size of each directory.
