9atom has a relative of andrey's find. it takes very few options.
the -d and -D options are not easily duplicated with du.
; man find

DESCRIPTION
List each argument. If the argument is a directory recur-
sively list it's contents. The default is to list the cur-
rent directory. Specifying -d prints only directories, -D
prints only files, -f supresses warnings, while -q supresses
quoting the output for rc(1). With -1, mount points will not
