Will the tree command be added to the Linux Toolbox for AIX?

As long as there is no tree command you can use

# ls -R example/ | grep ':$' | sed -e 's/:$//' -e 's/[^\/]*\//| /g' -e 's/| \([^|]\)/`--\1/g'
`--dir1

Right now it is not in our plan.
But I think it should be easy to compile. All the build tools are available on AIX toolbox you may want to build it yourself.
Other option is to use ls command as provided by Sascha, you can create a script with tree name or alias.

Hi Frederick,

tree is also available as a bash implementation on github. Unfortunately no one-liner, but the output looks like from the usual command.
