= Description =

The provided script written in python provides a LaTeX compatible output for use with the [http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=dirtree dirtree] package. So one can display directory trees which are generated right at the time when the document is generated. I use [wiki:Makefile makefiles] for generating my documents with pdflatex and bibtex and then simply add a few lines to use this small script.

= Motivation =

The motivation for me writing this script came to me, when I was writing the documentation for a project at the University and wanted to show our directory layout of our project repositories. I did not want to write all this directories down by hand and even worse keeping it up-to-date.

= Features =

 == actual ==

 * one can exclude directories from processing
 * one can use .comment files to print comments behind the listed directory in which the file lies
 * one can specify an other file to use as comment file

 == planned ==

 * one let the script print directory sizes as comment or at the beginning of the comment
 * one can specify if files should be considered, specified closer as
   * hidden files
   * seperate exclude list
