Hello, I'm trying to come up with a way to do the following:

I have several .mp3 playlists with this general format : 

/a/f1.mp3
/a/f2.mp3
/a/b/f1.mp3
/a/b/f2.mp3
/a/b/f3.mp3
/a/c/f1.mp3
/a/c/f2.mp3
/a/c/e/f5.mp3
/a/c/e/f6.mp3
/b/d/f4.mp3
...

[download]

I want to create a table like this (using above notation): 

a
 f1.mp3
 f2.mp3
 b
  f1.mp3
  f2.mp3
  f3.mp3
 c
  f1.mp3
  f2.mp3
  e
   f5.mp3
   f6.mp3
b
 d
  f4.mp3

[download]

I'd appreciate any pointers on this. At first glance, I thought of nesting references, but there's variable directory depth here.

Thanks,
Ari Constancio
