cd /usr/bin
wget http://git.io/vEYZ9A && cp vEYZ9A treegen && chmod 755 treegen

Start using it

Hi @dhruvghulati,

Sorry for replying late to this, it didn't notify me of your comment. I'm sure you have resolved the issue.

It was because you were not root, running the commands with sudo works for me.

Thanks for checking it out.
