-Kdirstat - a graphical disk usage display for TDE.
-
-
-KDirStat (TDE Directory Statistics) is a small utility program that sums
-up disk usage for directory trees, very much like the Unix 'du' command.
-
-It displays the disk space used up by a directory tree, both numerically
-and graphically. It is network transparent (i.e you can use it to sum up
-FTP servers) It comes with predefined and user configurable cleanup
-actions. You can directly open a directory branch in Konqueror or the
-shell of your choice then compress it to a .tar.bz2 archive or define
-your own cleanup actions.
