I find this useful! Thans for putting this in elisp.


Some additions I could thing of:

  * a customizable list of directory names to skip.
    '("CVS" "_MTN" ".git" ".hg" "RCS") might be a good default.

  * Add directory names to the skip list

    #+begin fstree -sd (nogo notes)

  * Skip files by suffix

    #+begin fstree -sf (.jpg .gif ...)

  * Maybe require the option `-r' to be recursive.
    Files are often grouped in directories for a purpose. If I jott down
    some notes it would be great to just add files in that one directory
    that contains files related to the sections content.

  * Add a slash to the directory names to make the list more
    readable. As an alternative, I could imagine to use folder icons
    like speedbar, or use headlines without links for directories (the
    links all look the same, wether they are headlines or leaves).
