When I need to monitor some folder size constantly, I can do it like this:
watch du --max-depth=1 -h ~/distIf I try the same trick with dust
dust -d1 ~/dist, I receive... a mess in terminalSo, I thought it would be nice to have an option to make output auto-updated once in a while or on change without

Try
watch dust -cor if you have a new version of watch:
watch --color dustI'll add a note in help to mention watch in the help text for -c

@bootandy, thank you!

Hello, this works, but still seems a bit janky. Is there any plan of implementing file system monitoring so that the updates can be incremental?
Maybe an interactive mode with TUI and mouse support to enter a subdirectory like SpaceSniffer and maybe even move items to trash. This would be a great thing, since there is no alternative of SpaceSniffer in Linux that I am aware of.
@bootandy commented on GitHub (May 5, 2023):
Nope,
I appreciate the feedback, but I'm trying to not add too many features into dust and I don't want to start a 'real time file system monitoring' project. I'd rather stick with 'watch dust -c'
