It is most useful for answering the question - "What is using 16 all my disk space?". 17 18 <script src="https://asciinema.org/a/157793.js" id="asciicast-157793" async></script> 19 20 To make the user interface it first scans the entire remote given and 21 builds an in memory representation. rclone ncdu can be used during 22 this scanning phase and you will see it building up the directory 23 structure as it goes along. 24 25 Here are the keys - press '?' to toggle the help on and off 26 27 ↑,↓ or k,j to Move 28 →,l to enter 29 ←,h to return 30 c toggle counts 31 g toggle graph 32 n,s,C sort by name,size,count 33 d delete file/directory 34 y copy current path to clipbard 35 Y display current path 36 ^L refresh screen 37 ? to toggle help on and off 38 q/ESC/c-C to quit 39 40 This an homage to the [ncdu tool](https://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdu) but for 41 rclone remotes. It is missing lots of features at the moment 42 but is useful as it stands. 43 44 Note that it might take some time to delete big files/folders. The 45 UI won't respond in the meantime since the deletion is done synchronously. 46 47 48 ``` 49 rclone ncdu remote:path [flags] 50 ``` 51 52 ### Options 53 54 ``` 55 -h, --help help for ncdu 56 ``` 57 58 See the [global flags page](/flags/) for global options not listed here. 59 60 ### SEE ALSO 61 62 * [rclone](/commands/rclone/) - Show help for rclone commands, flags and backends. 63
