My personal favorite is powerdevil-ddcutil. It lets you control your desktop monitor brightness in KDE.

duc, aur: it indexes file sizes of all your files and lets you browse it with a ncurses ui, for me that lives in the terminal this is a very handy tool for finding where all my disk space went.

What are the pros/cons of duc vs gdu or ncdu?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

honestly I haven't tried either of these and a cursory glance on github seems its similar, duc is definitely a step up from just du -csh * is all I can tell you.

Wait what's the -c flag do? And yeah you're right duc is a bit more stuff. Also, how did you get the code text to look like that? i pushed a button to test to see if it does that Edit: the button works, cool!

It has a pie chart in terminal! I used baobab for this, but it's only for systems with gui,this works on servers via ssh.

Edit: I think I misunderstand something. Does it have the piechart in the terminal?

Yes it does
