Find those big files!ncdu is TUI program to generate and view usage statistics for disk space from the current directory and below. Use -x to avoid crossing filesystem boundaries and disable file modification with -r. ionice will give ncdu less I/O priority.ionice ncdu -x -r

@climagic What does TUI mean ? I am guessing Terminal User Interface, but just checking.

@zleap Yes. There's CLI and TUI. CLI basically means you're looking at a shell prompt, while TUI means there's a whole interface built within the terminal (think vim).

@zleap @climagic yep. Usually refers to GUI apps but in a text interface like htop or ncurses based stuff (which guessing by the name ncdu, is probably just that).
