Hello -
I'm desperately looking for a source for the tree command in cygwin.
It isn't listed separately in any of the package sources that I
looked at. I tried googling and search the cygwin website, but they
just return results for "source tree" or "filesystem tree" -- nothing
about the tree command.
Has in been abandoned from cygwin?
I'd suggest you look for the package that the command is in, either
through <cygwin.com/packages> or via 'cygcheck -p tree'. Neither of
these narrow things down very well for me to point you more directly
so I can only say that I would recommend that you
'cygcheck -p $(which tree)' to see if that unearths a potential package
for you. Once you find it, fire up 'setup.exe' and make sure you
choose the 'Src?' box for the package. The result will go in '/usr/src'.
Looks like my memory made something up -- Thorsten says it was never
included in cygwin. That would make it difficult to find!
I tried looking in the package search on the website, but of course I
didn't find it. I thought it was due to ubiquity of the term 'tree', but
it looks like it's because it just wasn't there.
Thanks for the help!
Steve
