What the Ncdu program can do

Ncdu (Ncurses Disk Usage) is a command-line tool for analyzing disk space usage in the Linux operating system. It uses the ncurses library to create an interactive text interface.

Ncdu allows the user to quickly and easily determine which files and directories take up the most space on the disk. It displays the size of each file or directory, as well as the total size of all files and directories in the current directory.

The main functions of the Ncdu include:

After installation, you can start Ncdu by running the ncdu command in the terminal. The Ncdu interface will be displayed in the terminal, and you can start analyzing disk space usage.
