NAME

       xdu - display the output of "du" in an X window

SYNOPSIS

       du | xdu [options]

DESCRIPTION

       Xdu  is a program for displaying a graphical tree of disk space utilization as reported by
       the UNIX utility "du".  The user can navigate through the tree structure  and  change  the
       order  of  the displayed information.  The window is divided up into several columns, each
       of which is one level deeper in the directory hierarchy (from left to right).   Boxes  are
       drawn  for  each directory.  The amount of vertical space occupied by each box is directly
       proportional to the amount of disk space consumed by it and all of its children.  The name
       of each directory and the amount of data are displayed provided that there is enough space
       within its box.  Any space at the "bottom" of a box not covered by  its  children  to  the
       right  represents  the space consumed by files in that directory (as opposed to space from
       its children).

       There are several command line options available.  Equivalent resources (if any) are shown
       with each option.

       +s     (.showsize: true) display sizes (the default).

       -s     (.showsize: false) don't display sizes.

       -c num display num columns.

       -a     (.order: alpha) sorts display alphabetically.

       -ra    (.order: ralpha) sorts display reverse alphabetically.

       -n     (.order: size) sorts display numerically (largest first).

       -rn    (.order: rsize) sorts display reverse numerically (smallest first).

       -fg color
              (.foregound) determines the color of the text and lines.

       -bg color
              (.background) determines the color of the background.

       -rv    reverse video (for monochrome displays)

       In  addition  to  these the usual toolkit options such as -rv, -font, -display, -geometry,
       are supported.

MOUSE ACTIONS

       The user can move up or down the tree by clicking the left mouse on a directory  box.   If
       the  left  most  box is selected, the display will move up one level (assuming you are not
       already at the root).  If any other box is selected, it will be placed  against  the  left
       edge of the window and the display will be rescaled appropriately.  At any time the middle
       mouse will bring you back to the root.  Clicking the right mouse will exit the program.

KEYSTROKES

       Several keystroke commands are supported.  Note that all sorting happens from the  current
       root node down, so it is possible to sort one subtree differently than another by clicking
       into it, doing a sort, and going back up to the parent.

       1-9,0  sets the number of columns in the display (0 = 10).

       a      alphabetical sort.

       n      numerical sort (largest first).

       f      first-in-first-out sort (this is the order the data was read into the program).

       l      last-in-first-out sort.

       r      reverse sense of sort.

       s      toggle size display.

       h      display a popup help window.

       i      display information about the current root node to standard out.   The  first  line
              shows  the  path  within  the  tree, the total size from this node on down, and the
              precentage that total represents of all of the data given to xdu.  Subsequent lines
              show  the size and name information for all children of this node in the order they
              are currently sorted in.  This allows tiny directories to be  seen  that  otherwise
              could  not be labled on the display, and also allows for cutting and pasting of the
              information.

       /      goto the root.

       q      (or Escape) exit the program.

ACTIONS

       All mouse and keyboard events trigger actions so they can all be rebound  by  translations
       to suit the individual.  The action functions are:

       reset()
              goes to the root node.

       goto() moves  down into the directory currently under the mouse (and is thus probably only
              useful bound to a mouse button).

       quit() exits the program.

       reorder(type)
              sorts the display from the current root node  down  according  to  one  of:  alpha,
              ralpha  (reverse  alphabetical),  size  (largest  to  smallest), rsize (smallest to
              largest), first (as originally read in), last (opposite of original data),  reverse
              (reverse whatever sort mode is currently selected).

       size() toggles size display on/off

       ncol(num)
              sets the number of columns to num.

       info() displays directory information as described in the KEYBOARD section.

       help() displays a popup help window.

       As an example of rebinding these, you could put the following in your resources file:

       XDu*translations: #override\n\
                 <Key>X: reorder(reverse)\n\
             <Btn3Down>: info()

       to  make  the  'x' key reverse the current sort order and the right mouse button print the
       directory information message.

RESOURCES

       The following resources are supported with some sample values.

       XDu*foreground:          yellow
       XDu*background:          blue4
       XDu*window.width:   600
       XDu*window.height:  480
       XDu*help*foreground:     green
       XDu*help*background:     red4
       XDu.ncol:      5
       XDu.font:      -*-helvetica-bold-r-normal--14-*
       XDu.showsize:       False
       XDu.order:          size

EXAMPLE

       cd /usr/src
       du > /tmp/du.out
       xdu -n /tmp/du.out

BUGS

       On some machines keyboard input may not be accepted by xdu until the mouse is moved out of
       and  back  into the window.  I have been told that putting the following in your resources
       file may fix this.

       <window manager name>.FocusLenience: True
