Jep, FileLight comes close to JDiskFree. KDirStat features the same useless UI as does baobab. I don't care if its part of the properties dialog or available via the context menu. But such an utility would be really neat. Maybe somebody wants to start with a Python/Ruby mockup. The actual drawing of the stats should be easy using cairo (there's a python cairo + GtkWidget tutorial). > Cheers, > Mike.
