This actually looks very simiar to KDirStat. I like Filelight’s looks a lot better, personally.

The point of my post was not to give an overview over all these tools in the world, but just highlight one I tend to use quite often.

Why not name Sequoia View – in my opinion the best DiskUsage-Visualization there is.

It runs nice with wine.

Yes, it does work under zsh – only the braindead default config does not give it to you:

% setopt shnullcmd
% > henk

By default zsh will use nullcmd for an emtpy redirection and this is defined to be ‘cat’. Using the default
zsh config, the above becomes:
% > henk
^D
%

That doesn’t actually work in zsh.

Nice :) BTW – You can clear log file simply by “> logfile.log”

thanks, missed this kind of feature in KDE4 konqueror for a long time. Filelight seems to be a good alternative
