Features
Using the program, you can scan either the whole file system, or a separate local directory or located on a remote computer. Each directory can be opened in the Nautilus file manager, or deleted in the "trash".
You can also monitor changes in the file system in real time.
Another possibility is the “usage map”, with which you can graphically present the tree of subdirectories of the selected directory and the size they occupy.
In earlier versions of the program, it was possible to search the file system, but then it was decided to abandon this function [4] .
