foot Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Baobab is a multithreaded Perl-Gtk2 application to analyse directory trees in any Gnome environment. Baobab can easily draw either the whole filesystem tree, or a specific user-requested directory branch :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fissy Posted July 2, 2005 Report Share Posted July 2, 2005 thanks for signing up to tell us about your software, it looks very pretty and just what i'm after- loading konqueror to get the same feature was really annoying. Unfortunately i can't get it to work :( djb@shuttle ~/downloads/baobab-0.1.0 $ baobab Undefined subroutine &main::bind_textdomain_codeset called at /usr/bin/baobab line 72. According to gentoo, i have this version of gnome perl installed: dev-perl/gnome2-perl-1.00 and this version of gtk perl: dev-perl/gtk2-perl-1.062 Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Adriano1 Posted July 2, 2005 Report Share Posted July 2, 2005 I had to comment line 78 and manually create the /usr/share/pixmaps/baobab (and copy the pixmaps to it) to make it work, but it does. At least, so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest saltydog Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 (edited) New v.1.0.1 has been completely rewritten in C, so it goes faster!

bvc Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 I'd like to know...wuz_up_wid_da_name? :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowe Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 I think he uses ubuntu, that might explain why the name is bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Adriano1 Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Well, baobab is a kind of tree (a very big kind of tree). Since the program measures the size of directory trees, I don't think it's a bad name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieJohn Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 I am wondering if this really tries to achieve the same thing as filelight which I think gives a superior visual image of the relative sizes and relationship of files, folders and directorys. Or does this do something different ???. After all filelight also effectively shows the tree pattern of the system too and gives instant info of what may be hogging the system and where. If you want filelight, I think it is in contributors otherwise plf-free. Cheers. John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
