I cannot imagine a "cool" way. Perhaps listing all the files in current 
directory (File.dirname(__FILE)) and then inspecting each of them with 
File.directory?(file). In case of "true" then inspect the content of that 
directory and repeat the operation (until depth is 4).

Yes, a bit manual though... :)
