ncdu packaged for Maemo

ncdu is a nice little tool to see where the free space on your device disappears. Images are supposed to speak a thousand words, so here's how it looks:

.deb in attachment, properly optified (I hope). Hope you'll find this useful.

Re: ncdu packaged for Maemo
 
it's really great ... but is it only for optfs ?? or can also show rootfs usage ?

Re: ncdu packaged for Maemo
 
You can use it for anything you wish. Like so:

Code:

ncdu /home/user/MyDocs # inspect MyDocs
ncdu -x / # on rootfs, but only on this specifc partition (so doesn't go inside /home for example

man ncdu says it all (as long as you have man on your n900) :)

Why, from the terminal of course. Open the terminal, type 'ncdu', press enter.

Simple, yet very clever idea. For many things, more conveinent to use, than "Storage Usage" application. Thanks a lot!

Re: ncdu packaged for Maemo
 
Yes, we also have package 'storageusage', which has a graphical UI (for people not familiar or disliking terminal).

But thanks for that addition to us x-termers!
Any plans to put to repos?

Re: ncdu packaged for Maemo
 
as Peterleinchen already pointed out, storageusage provides a lot of storage information right from the desktop.
apart from an initial screen with all mounted partitions (i myself have three on my µSD :D) with available space you can click down into any directory down to file level
furthermore it also can display space usage by application with indication of what space is in rootfs and what is optified...

but as peterleinchen said, great to have a cli tool showing that kind of information (in a more user friendly manner then du -sm ¦-) :cool:
