The sed command keeps saying that it needs a proper command after the -e option. I looked on the man page for commands, but whenever I tried any of them, it wouldn't work. The find command worked perfectly though.

Your comments indicate that the code is somewhat alien to you, so you're probably mistyping it. Cut and paste if you're having difficulty with it. It is just a simple sed command and I have tested it on many OS's. I have just cut it from this thread and pasted it into a Solaris xterm and it worked yet again for me.

Very cool command. I'm trying it on OSX 10.5.2 and it's displaying all the folders but not the files. Can anyone help me adjust the command so I see file names too?
Thanks.

Thanks.
Drop the -type flag
Code:
find . -print | sed -e 's;[^/]*/;|____;g;s;____|; |;g'
