[webmin-l] graphical du

[Pat E. <mai...@pa...>]

hi jamie, listmembers,

one of my more regular tasks is wondering where my diskspace has gone. du  
is fine for this du --max-depth=1 even better, but its slow and in case of  
this tedious job an image would really say more then a thousand words.

so, i wonder if this woudn't be a wonderful job for a little webmin module  
or an extension to an already exsiting one. one could even think about a  
cache for du, regularly updated by a cronjob similar to the nightly  
"updatedb" to fuel the locate command.

it would show a bar graph and numbers in definite kb or Mb or GB (not  
blocks or whatever uninformative nonsense du on some systems tends to  
spill out) - nothing fancy..

jamie? :)

PAT
