Default Windows 'tree'

Is there an XP equivalent to the windows / dos TREE program which displayed
a list of folders by size? thanks John

Yes..
TREE.

C:\>tree /?
Graphically displays the folder structure of a drive or path.

TREE [drive:][path] [/F] [/A]

/F Display the names of the files in each folder.
/A Use ASCII instead of extended characters.

Wait..
By Size?

I did not realize tree did that. Does it?

Anyway..

Try SequoiaView..
(There's other applications out there like that.)

Use Windows Explorer and click Size at the top of the Size column. Click it
again to reverse the order.

Thanks

My problem was that when I ran it the output flashed up in a'DOS' window and
disappeared before I could read it. I will try writing to a file but I would
prefer to use it interactively on the screen.

Windows Explorer flashed up a Cmd window that disappeared?
How are you opening Windows Explorer?

Try "tree |more".
It still won't show file sizes though.

My friend recommended me View Folder Size Pro.
http://www.moveax.com/viewfoldersizepro/
He searched for software that shows folder size extension both on
Windows 2k/XP and WinXP x64. I likes View Folder Size Pro because it
faster and more customizable than other software. The program is fast,
efficient and gives you a lot of configurable options. Try it.
