How Do I Download Windirstat
Tula Difeo
I'm interested in using python to make diagrams representing the size of values based on the size of squares (and optionally their colour). Basically I'm looking for a way to make overviews of a bunch of values like the good old program windirstat does with hard-drive usage (it basically makes a big square representing your harddrive and then smaller squares making up the area inside of it representing different programs, the bigger the square the larger the file, colour indicates the type of file). I'm fairly familiar with matplotlib, and I don't think it's possible to do something like this with it. Is there any other python package that would help? Any suggestions for something more low level if it's not? I guess I could do it manually if I could find a way to draw the boxes programatically (I don't really care about the format, but the option to export SVG as well as PNG would be nice).
Ultimately, it would be nice to have it be interactive like windirstat is, where if you were to hover over a particular square you get more information on it, and if you clicked on it maybe you'd go in and see the makeup of that particular square. I'm only familiar with wxpython for GUI stuff, not sure if it could be used for something like this. For now I'd be happy with just outputting them though.
v0.9.2 had a small but idiotic issue in it, that was a stupid mistake of mine. I wasn't properly guarding a Windows-8-only API with IsWindows8OrGreater, but instead ASSERTing in debug builds. This meant that the release build would crash on calling the API, and the debug build would crash on the failed assertion. See windirstat.cpp:300 in 38470d2 for the fix. I develop on a Windows 8(.1) machine, so it didn't show up immediately. This is also a runtime check, so it didn't show up in static analysis.
PS: yes, this was mainly built for use in the WDS repo and therefore is located in the windirstat/premake-stable project realm.
PPS: previously I had given the SHA1 hash here for the build from rev 800. Since I am updating this every now and then, please check that the file is code-signed or check that the PGP signature is valid. Thanks.
