NAME

ncdu - NCurses Disk Usage

SYNOPSIS

ncdu [-hqvx] [--exclude PATTERN] [-X FILE] dir

DESCRIPTION

ncdu (NCurses Disk Usage) is a curses-based version of the well-known 'du', and provides a fast way to see what directories are using your disk space.

OPTIONS

-h
Print a small help message
-q
Quiet mode. While calculating disk space, ncdu will update the screen 10 times a second by default, this will be decreased to once every 2 seconds in quiet mode. Use this feature to save bandwidth over remote connections.
-v
Print version.
-x
Only count files and directories on the same filesystem as the specified dir.
--exclude PATTERN
Exclude files that match PATTERN. This argument can be added multiple times to add more patterns.
-X FILE, --exclude-from FILE
Exclude files that match any pattern in FILE. Patterns should be seperated by a newline.

If you suspect that the totals shown at the bottom of the screen are not correct, make sure you haven't enabled this option.
