ee-dired - categorized directory listings

Description

This extension creates the ee buffer containing the listing of a directory and its subdirectories. Every directory name is the category, and directory files are placed under this category. Files are printed in the format similar to format of original dired buffers.

Note that currently ee-dired is NOT replacement for original dired mode. Ee-dired is useful for inspecting directory trees and locating files under different categories.

Well, it doesn't work for me.

Well, it doesn't work for me. I've placed all files in ~/.emacs.d/ee-0.1.0/, and added following to ~/.emacs
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/ee-0.1.0/")
(require 'ee-autoloads)
Some things work well (ee-buffers, ee-ps).
ee-dired at first didn't work at all(started at ~/, it locked emacs for a long time until C-g. Maybe it's very big? I dunno). If i start it from other directory, it show me all the files in all folders in this directory, but it don't show any of the parent folders. pic related: http://rghost.net/10388911/image.png
suiseiseki is home dir, so there are plenty of files.

Yes, maybe it's too big. I'll try to fix this.

Emm, well. And how about that I cannot see directories above that folder, where I run ee-dired? Is it the way it should work?
I mean, if I use it, I see full tree of the directories in the folder and BELOW, but not above. Above I see only path, every directory above show only one directory, path directory to the current directory. And, as far as I understand it, I cannot open them to show all files(or I actually can? I didn't found any tutorial when I did a try, if there is any, link please).

Yes, you can see only the

Yes, you can see only the directories in the initial folder and BELOW. If you want to see all directories, you can run it from the root directory.
