Including regular files?

from http://mama.indstate.edu/users/ice/tree/tree.1.html , in the
"FILE OPTIONS" section:

  | --du
  |   For each directory report its size as the accumulation of sizes
  |   of all its files and sub-directories (and their files, and so
  |   on). The total amount of used space is also given in the final
  |   report (like the 'du -c' command.) This option requires tree to
  |   read the entire directory tree before emitting it, see BUGS AND
  |   NOTES below. Implies -s.

(I don't have this program installed, and so I make no guarantees
regarding the helpfulness of this excerpt. I'm just browsing
documentation.)
