I'm looking for a way to get a more concise overview of a tree. This would be useful to avoid scrolling too much or even exceed shell history on big trees. It would also help drawing a less cluttered version of a tree in a documentation page, or a small enough one to fit on a slide.
I think we could regroup files by extensions, when multiple similar ones are found in same folder, eg. from:
I think this would also help to improve the signal/noise ratio in directories where hundreds of similar files are generated, while they are probably not what we are looking for, or at least not individually.
PS: This would also fit well with the --icons flag
