XDU(1)                        UNIX System V(X11)                         XDU(1)


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

SYNOPSIS
      du | xdu

DESCRIPTION
      Xdu is a program for displaying a graphical tree of disk space
      utilization as reported by the UNIX utility "du".  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 will be displayed provided that
      there is enough space within its box.

      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 on the left of the window and the
      display will be rescaled appropriately.  At any time the middle mouse, or
      typing "r" within the window, will bring you back to the root.  Clicking
      the right mouse, or typing "q", will exit the program.

      The following resources are supported (with their default values shown):

      xdu.foreground:Black
      xdu.background:White
      xdu*window.width:600
      xdu*window.height:480
      xdu.ncol:5
      xdu.font:Fixed
      xdu.showsize:True

      cd /usr/src
      du > /tmp/du.out
