A couple of posts ago, I outlined a small bash script to generate an index.html file, containing links to other files in a directory. This was for generating links to files in a Dropbox public directory.
I had completely forgotten about the very useful UNIX/Linux command named tree. If not installed, it should be in your distribution repository (e.g. sudo apt-get install tree for Ubuntu/Debian). Then simply:
cd Dropbox/Public/mydirectory tree -H . > index.html
| Next, navigate to index.html at the Dropbox website and you should see something like the tree on the right. It’s a little ugly and obviously, not as convenient as something like Github, but can be a good quick and dirty fix if you need to share a hierarchy of directories and files. |
