xdu (patched) - display the output of du -k in an X window

xdu is a program for displaying a graphical tree of disk space utilization as reported by the UNIX utility du. You can navigate up and down in the tree, sort things, and print out information. See the manual page for details.

This version has been patched for more functions.

• key n : change size display ( bytes, MiB, GiB, TiB )
• key p : print as postscript
• key v : print as scalable-vector-graphic
• option -f : set postscript file name

This is a works-for-me release.

compilation

installation

No autoconf, hg, docker, what-ever. Never. Ever. This is ~1500 lines of pure C. Get a life!

See the XDu.ad file if e.g. you have problems with the selected font.
