GdMap allows you to visualize disk space. Directories and files are displayed as rectangular areas. The larger a file, the larger the rectangle which represents it.

GdMap 0.7.5 with added "Quit" toolbar button
Patched to work with files that are larger than 2 gigs.
compiled on Puppy 213
http://gdmap.sourceforge.net/
i don't know why ctrl+Q and ctrl+O do not work
maybe the syntax doesn't work properly with newer versions of GTK
the code that would need to be changed seems to be line 99 in gui_main.c
since ctrl+Q doesn't work, i added a Quit button as a workaround (easier than clicking a tiny X in the corner of the window)

GuestToo, could you add a short description of what Gdmap does? Thanks.

Since I am running 211, I wasn't sure which one to get but thought I'd try the first one (compiled on 1.08 ) as being less risky.
It did indeed find the 3.5 gig file. However I noticed it took something like 4 times as long to scan through my hard drive (8 gig of data).
Thanks for the quick response by the way!
<later> I booted 214 and tried the 213-compiled version. I had already deleted the large file, just wanted to check the speed. I don't know, it may be somewhat slower. Anyway I suggest anyone trying these, to first put a stopwatch on how fast the unpatched gdmap works, then compare times. Maybe this is all in my head!
Or maybe it doesn't matter...
Very useful too to delete useless huge libraries as LLVM !
