request for new feature: ncdu

Hello,

A great tool I miss in my PA ssh sessions is "ncdu", to easily visualize my disk usage. As it lies in the debian/ubuntu main repos, wouldn't it be simple to add it?

Thanks!

Hmm, I'm not sure. We could add it, but it might not work with the way we handle storage. We'll can take a look, though.

+1 on this or could you please advise best way to visualize disk usage locally ? Tx

something like du -sh ~/* could work. (also keep in mind you might have stuff in /tmp and other folders)

Thanks! Works

du -hs * | sort -h -r | head -20 returns a top 20 largest files / dirs
