<font size="+1">I have tried baobab. I don't understand the 'ring'
graph and the tree graph option is totally beyond me. Part of the
problem is in both graphs, the colors or shapes are not
identified, leaving me to go between a directory listing and the
chart. Too much use of the wrong cpu. ncdu is better. I was
just hoping for something more like hog. I just looked inside
hog.exe and found the author's name. I duckduckgoed him and found
him "Jay Wherley". I dropped him a note re: Linux. I saw in his
site that he wrote a newer version of it for windows.<br>
<br>
I saw k4dirstat that someone mentioned. The png looks good.
Assuming that is a KDE program, when I switch from Suse to Ubuntu
when Ubuntu first came out, I decided to not run KDE programs on
Ubuntu, as there seem to be a lot of dependencies. Mate looks
interesting.<br>

In addition to 'du', there is ncurses-based 'ncdu' for a
prettier<br>
output.<br>
