# See if this is the first call
if [ ! "$1" = "RECURSIVE" ]
then
	SPACES="" export SPACES
	if [ -n "$1" ]; then cd $1; fi
fi

for i in *
do
	if [ $i = "*" ]; then exit 0; fi

	if [ -d $i ]
	then
		echo "${SPACES}+---$DIR/$i"
		cd $i
		SPACES="${SPACES}|   " vtree RECURSIVE
		cd ..
	else
		echo "${SPACES}+---$i"
	fi
done
