Anybody know of software that can do this?

i need to be able to make entries for files and directories on a machine, and in the end, have it spit out a nice little tree with names and descriptions...

thanks

What do you mean by descriptions?
I know if you open a DOS prompt you can say
tree <path> /f

well, here's the thing. we have some software on a linux machine that i need to document for other employees. and i think it would be useful to have a little tree with descriptions of what certain files do.

You still owe me a 9 second car.

you could potentially use
ls -R
or
ls -R1

or some other variation on ls -R. You can redirect the output to a file and add descriptions manually...
