Shell script for a writing the directory structure to a file

Hi All,
I am new user of shell scripting has come up with a problem. that I have a directory structure like :

Home
|
|--------A
| |----trunk
| |-------A_0_1/
| |
| |-------A_0_2/
|
|--------B
| |-----trunk
| |-------B_0_1/
| |
| |-------B_0_2/
|
|--------C
| |-----trunk
| |---------C_0_1/


My problem is to write a script that will generate a file reporting this file hierarchy i.e (The script can be run be from Home)
(Directiry structure states that under Home/ there are 3 subdirectories called A, B, C . Each has another subdirectory called trunk/, all trunk contains the versions of original directory like A_0_1, A_0_2, B_0_1...so on)

$ cat file
--------------
A/trunk/A_0_1
A/trunk/A_0_2
B/trunk/B_0_1
B/trunk/B_0_2
C/trunk/C_0_1
--------------

Please help me regarding this. Thanks in advance.

ATF-SH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 ATF-SH(1)

NAME
atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library. atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL. atf-sh executes the inter- preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script. You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not use any non-standard extensions. The following options are available: -s shell Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL. ENVIRONMENT
ATF_LIBEXECDIR Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_PKGDATADIR Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a specific interpreter. EXAMPLES
Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with: #! /usr/bin/env atf-sh Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh. Instead, you have to hardcode the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter: #! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash ENVIRONMENT
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. SEE ALSO
