Here is my next weapon in the fight: dusub. Save a <tt>du</tt> listing today, then find out tomorrow or next week what's been growing: <pre>dusub olddu newdu</pre> or <pre>du … | dusub olddu</pre> Positive numbers in the output represent an item that grew since olddu; negative numbers represent a decrease in size since olddu. <p>Version 2 knows about &quot;du -h&quot;-style listings. <p>dusub is useful with <a href="https://emergent.unpythonic.net/01329670473">sorttop</a>: <pre>du … | dusub olddu | sorttop</pre> <p><b>Files currently attached to this page:</b> <table cellpadding=5 style="width:auto!important; clear:none!important"><col><col style="text-align: right"><tr bgcolor=#eeeeee><td><a href="https://media.unpythonic.net/emergent-files/01333544084/dusub-v2.py">dusub-v2.py</a></td><td>2.4kB</td></tr><tr bgcolor=#dddddd><td><a href="https://media.unpythonic.net/emergent-files/01333544084/dusub.py">dusub.py</a></td><td>1.4kB</td></tr></table><p>
