I absolutely was not advocating running Windows 10, and don't see what made you jump to that conclusion.

OverDisk was from pre-XP days and was [one of] the first visualizers of this kind, but has now been abandoned.

Filelight is kinda ok - it's an improvement over multiple du commands - but there are numerous relatively simple ways in which it's lacking.

And that's what frustrates me: when there is an example of a particular piece of software done [mostly] right, but in attempting to recreate it, the aspects that make the software good are missed, ignored or not fully understood.

Please accept my sincere apology for jumping to a conclusion based on it's being Windows-only software, boughtonp. It's probably partly because I'm triggered that MS has managed to maneuver things so that new hardware won't work with even Win 7, yet another play to force people to Win 10. I should be more careful.

That said, Plasma 5 just gets better and better. It's footprint is down around Xfce levels now and that's without removing any of the used-to-be infamous offenders baloo, akonadai, etc. I'm seeing lots of posts of people considering coming back to KDE after years of hiatus due to the initial and horrendous v4 KDE. It did get decent by the end but Plasma 5 is a quantum leap in polish and refinement. If there is any demand for an app like Filelight, and not just a few of us especially nerdy types, I imagine it, too will get "spit and polish" as well. Hopefully it will still also be very light.

I used to use a QT app that did the same - visualise file system usage - but not circular. I liked it more. Cannot for the world remember the name now, or find it.

would that be QDirStat?

Hallelujah, yes it is!
Installed.

After 20 years, I've only just discovered the command pkexec!

I've just discovered how to make sox play synthesised tones. But they sound horrible!

It can be any day, it is always one time in a week. You can do it Monday, or Saturday.
But now a new thread is started, it is here https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...ys-4175688500/

sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf vm.swappiness=20 to reduce the RAM from 60.
This has speeded up my PC making it feel "like new".
I found the info:
https://www.fosslinux.com/

So I went to that site and didn't find that particular article, but I found something else very useful:

I am used to using ps2pdf as a simple converter. I have a music writing program called pmw that produces postscript output for printing. When I want to share this with colleagues by email, I convert it into a pdf so that they can read it with Acrobat. But apparently if you provide this command with a .ps output spec, it will reconvert from an intermediate pdf back to ps and make a smaller file than the original. Which could be very useful.

Sorry my mistake try

Glad you found the other link of use

There's also baobab.
Unfortunately, as everything GNOME it's almost not configurable at all.

watch in real time iptables packet counts, and what rules get most traffic.

I have just found Dillo, installed it and am presently looking/testing.

Love Neofetch, too!
