In my present Linux installation I am using tree v1.5.1 to display
files and directories in terminal windows.

I wish to install tree in an other PC, with has different versions of
kenel, libraries etc. In order to do this I need to compile the tree
sw in the other PC.

From where can tree source code be download?

In the README file, they say

The main distribution site for tree is here:

ftp://mama.indstate.edu/linux/tree/

They package the source in a .tgz file, and you can unpackage it by using
tar ("tar -xzvf <package>.tgz")

At first I thought, "What a stupid question, just google for 'tree source
code'". Then I realized that the words "tree source code" are on about
every site that is related to source code.

An alternative source is to use the install media for your distribution, these
usually include the source code including the patches your distribution uses.
Of course this isn't true for LiveCD versions, and the maintainer has to
provide the GPL code (or where to get it) on request.

Just found the "tree" package in Debian, and installed it. Nice little app!

Tree is a simple utility that displays a tree-view of directories
and files. It has options to use ANSI color escape-sequences or ASCII
graphic characters, and can also output in HTML format.
