  1. Re: du question: sort by size & show human-readable sizes

    final improvement: when sizes are the same, sort by path name. I needed this to ensure stable sort so I can more easily compare e.g. last week's usage with today's.

  6. Re: du question: sort by size & show human-readable sizes

    The SI output also generates some sizes as decimals, e.g. 7.1MB. The pattern match for the numbers needs to be expanded to include an optional decimal point and more digits.

  8. Re: du question: sort by size & show human-readable sizes

    in Kde at the login prompt there's that button to power down (red) and if you click it then one of the options is a console login. then you can login. I tried to find how one could enable KDE...

    Hi. This idea sounds great. I plan to use it for games that cannot be minimized in wine - it would be ideal to have that game on Ctrl-Alt-F9 while my primary X is on F7. Did you ever get to look...
