          Always juggling data between partitions and disks I'm since years fond of kdirstat, since QT renamed to k4dirstat.
          Apparently I'm not the only user on this forum, see Oneline's post of last year:

                  "Tools" to me means both useful and often needed. Yakuake is #1 for me, but I also use several I've created myself: CLI script to update, servicemenu to convert audio files, servicemenu to check md5sum.

                    I realise that a lot of you aren't from the UK, but anyone who needs to convert GPS data into a UK grid reference will find this useful.

                    Great explanation, a simple converter, and it's free software too!
