Package: filelight
Version: 0.6.4.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
I very much like filelight, but don't use it very often (only when my
disk fills up). By which time I remember how the program works, but
have forgotten its name. All my "apropos" queries are wasted, since
filelight has no man page. I suggest the attached one.

.SH NAME
filelight \- graphically display disk usage
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B filelight
.RI [ " path " ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBfilelight\fP allows you to understand exactly where your diskspace
is being used by graphically representating your filesystem as a set
of concentric segmented rings, where each segment subtends an angle
proportional to the disk space occupied by that file or directory.
.PP
You can specify a directory to scan on startup at the command line eg:
.nf
filelight /home/mxcl
.fi
Starting at the root requires a scan of the entire directory tree,
which may take a while.
.PP
\fBfilelight\fP is available in Konqueror under \fBView | View Mode | RadialMap
View\fP.
.SH RUN-TIME COMMANDS
