How can you view directory permissions with the tree command?

To view directory permissions with the tree command, you can use the -p option. This option displays the permissions of each directory and file in the tree structure.

Command Syntax:

tree -p

Example:

Running the command:

tree -p ~/path/to/directory

Output:

The output will show the directory structure along with the permissions for each item. For example:

drwxr-xr-x  3 user group  4096 Aug  7 18:40 dir1
-rw-r--r--  1 user group   123 Aug  7 18:40 file1.txt

In this output:

• The first column shows the permissions (e.g., drwxr-xr-x for directories and -rw-r--r-- for files).
• The rest of the output includes details like the number of links, owner, group, size, modification date, and name.

Note:

Make sure you have the tree command installed, as it may not be available by default on all systems. If you have any further questions or need more clarification, feel free to ask!
